Product Description
College guides written by students for students.

Your ultimate source for honest, unbiased information, College Prowler delivers an inside look at the top colleges and universities in the United States. Complete with thousands of student quotes, grades, stats, and reviews, this college guide offers a comprehensive collection of college information. See how students rate their campus when it s time to look beyond the brochures and talk about the issues that really matter.

Picking a college is hard, but we're here to help.

The lists at the beginning of this book group 286 schools in a variety of categories. Interested in location, size, or selectivity? Check the lists. Curious about which schools have the best dining, dorms, or local atmosphere? We rank those, too. Cross-reference between the different lists to find the schools that match all of your needs. Dive into our school-specific sections and find out why those colleges you have your eye on scored well in one category and poor in another. Just like the original College Prowler guidebooks, each school's section is student-written and provides its own unique dialogue to help you discover if the college is right for you.

5 out of 5 stars An incredible resource for high school students embarking on their college planning!   September 3, 2009

As an educational consultant working with a wide range of students, I find myself recommending College Prowler to all of them! The information is so germain to what today's teenagers are seeking in terms of the academic and social culture of the college campus.


5 out of 5 stars School Counselor   August 4, 2009
Nicole (Pittsburgh, PA)
As a School Counselor, I appreciate an honest point of view when researching post-secondary schools. This books is written by current students and graduates who have experienced first hand the schools reviewed. It is not written by the PR Department or the Admissions Office as are the mailings you typically receive. Furthermore, it is easy to read and well organized. I especially like the various topics reviewed and how they are defined. I believe it is a book Counseling Office should have on their reference shelves.
Please remember though that these are opinions and prospective students should try to experience a school first hand themselves via a visit to campus and possibly an overnight visit.



5 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource   August 5, 2009
Peg Hope (Friday Harbor, WA)
As a college counselor, I've found this book - and especially its new edition - immensely useful in helping students create their "college lists," and compare their choices and options. The style is student-friendly; my students are much more likely to spend time with this than any other guidebooks. We all like the testimonials - everyone relates to personal stories - and having a mix of comments is a good thing. The editors have chosen which information to highlight ("basics," statistics, best/worst aspects) and how to do so, extremely well. In spot checking write-ups of schools I am quite familiar with, I was impressed by the accuracy of the information given in the guidebook. An essential addition to the College Counselor's bookshelf.


5 out of 5 stars College Guide   September 7, 2009
Rachel Winston (Irvine, CA)
The Big Book of Colleges 2010 is thorough and informative. It may not completely show the entire picture, but there is lots of information in here. If I were to add something, I would add a part on athletic facilities. Otherwise, it is very good and helpful to gain a picture of college campuses.


5 out of 5 stars This book is a must have for the college process   March 21, 2010
Lisa Van Seters (New Jersey)
This is my third child going through the college selection process and we have used this book each time in additional to a few others. We also get the updated edition since we have two years in between each child and things can change. We find the student reviews are very true and give a good snapshot of the college and area. I would recommend this books to others in the process. Both of colleges my older children chose were accurately represented. It is easy to use and we enjoy sitting with books instead of doing everything online.
