College Blue Book

This is a great way to get your college search started – simply go to the state your child is interested in attending college and get a list of 4-year colleges as well as 2-year colleges and some trade schools. Click on the university you are interested in and view a description that includes key facts such as demographics, retention rates, entrance requirements and cost per year. This is a great way to find valuable information in one place rather than spending hours searching university websites.
