Best Buys in College Education

the long version

Updated with current facts, figures, and tuition costs at a wide range of accredited colleges, this directory tells students, parents, and school advisors how to locate colleges that provide a first-class education at a more reasonable price. Approximately 240 schools are described with up-to-date information on academic programs, campus environment, financial aid resources, and the amount of money students and their parents can expect to pay for tuition, required fees, room, and board. Tuition varies from very low at the nation’s better publicly supported colleges all the way up to the $30,000 range at schools where costs represent a bargain for quality of education provided. However, all but a handful of schools listed in this book are priced considerably below the maximum figure. In this era of skyrocketing tuitions, Best Buys in College Education is must-reading for all soon-to-be college students and their families.
