Search Colleges and Universities with Collegeboard.com

Know a high school student who is deciding where to attend college?

You might want to point him or her to collegeboard.com. This site has a section called College MatchMaker, which allows the student to search nearly 4,000 colleges and universities, based on various criteria, such as location, major, size, cost, sports programs, and several other categories.

Once the student has created a list a prospective schools matching the search criteria, he or she can see if he or she is on-track to be admitted to the school (based on high school classes), and how the student stacks up against other students at the school (based on standardized test scores, grades, and standing in high school.)

Just go to collegeboard.com, and click on Find Your Match to get started.
