For well over a half century, American Universities and Colleges has been the most comprehensive and highly respected directory of 4-year institutions of higher education in the United States. A two volume set that Choice magazine has hailed A most important resource in its November 2006 issue, this revised edition features the most up-to-date statistical data available to guide students in making both a smart, yet practical, decision in choosing the university or college of their dreams. In addition, the set serves as an indispensable reference source for parents, college advisors, educators, and public, academic, and high school librarians.
These two volumes provide extensive information on 1,900 institutions of higher education, including all accredited colleges and universities that offer at least the baccalaureate degree. This essential resource offers pertinent, statistical data on such topics as: * tuition, room and board; * admission requirements; * financial aid; * enrollments; * student life; * library holdings; * accelerated and study abroad programs; * departments and teaching staff; * buildings and grounds; * degrees conferred. Volume 2 of the set provides four indexes, including an Institutional Index, a Subject Accreditation Index, a Levels of Degrees Offered index, and a Tabular Index of Summary Data by State. These helpful indexes allow readers to find information easily and to make comparisons among institutions effectively.
