Greetings!
New Websites!
Two new websites could prove to be valuable tools in your college research. The first one is www.insidecollege.com. It comes from The College Finder, by Steve Antanoff, and it contains tons of lists like, "Weirdest Scholarships, "Schools Most Like Hogwarts," "Happy Colleges," and "Best Dorms," just to name a few. Check it out!
Another interesting new tool is www.goseecampus.com. This site will help you plan all the details of your campus tours, including tour times, driving directions, hotels, and restaurants. It will keep all of your information in one place and will help make those family trips less stressful!
Get out there!
