College Search Tools

Sponsored by the U. S. Department of Education, the College Scoreboard allows users to compare schools along such fields as location, academics, and graduation rate.

1st Financial Bank's College Data is a searchable database that provides information on admission rate, tuition, and total undergraduates. Users can also search by location, student body, admission rate, sports, and financials.

College Results Online allows users to search and compare colleges along a variety of criteria, including location, programs, size, cost, test scores, student characteristics, and student outcomes.

College Navigator, from the National Center for Education Statistics, allows users to search by school name, location, programs, scores, and other criteria and provides a comparison tool. Be sure to check out the export tool.

In addition to providing a college search tool, College Board's Big Future provides information about paying for college, careers, classes, and campus life.

Also from the Department of Education, Campus Safety and Security provides a searchable database on campus crime statistics.
