AnyCollege.com – Where College Search Begins

AnyCollege.comFinding a college or university has just become the easiest thing ever thanks to AnyCollege.com, a searchable index including 5,000+ colleges and universities across the country.

Their search features are very flexible and let you easily locate colleges by state, study field, tuition modality (on-campus or distance learning), type (2 or 4-year), sports and religion. The search results usually don’t include much information other than links to the college/university’s site, and some quick information for the institution of choice, like a video presentation, an overview of demographics, student-teacher ratio, tuition costs, and information on whether you can apply online. This seems okay, but it would be nice to get links pointing to operative information, like driving directions, nearby hotels or maybe to some form of educational assessment or ranking. It seems that users will be able to bookmark their favorite schools in the near future, and automatically send further information requests to manage through the site, but for the time being no selection or log in options are to be seen. Also very interesting about AnyCollege.com is that students and parents can also use it to find information about financial aid and scholarships, plus a resources area is also featured; under this tag, users will find help to understand their career choices better, a timeline of things to get ready before, during and after applying for a place in a program, and other very useful links.
