Guide to Colleges and Universities

Search for Campus Programs and Degrees by State

Finding the right college and university for you presents unique challenges. You want to find a great program that will give you the training you need to achieve your goals, but there’s much more to the decision process than identifying a top-rated program and signing up. There’s of course money, work/life balance, admissions, and other logistical considerations. But one of the most important factors to consider in your search for great higher education, and one that can occasionally be overlooked during your research, is your life during school and after. That’s where the Guide to Colleges and Universities by State comes in.

From the advantages of living in a state with good barbeque to the advantages of living in a state with affordable housing, we cover it all.

 

Campus-Based Versus Distance Education:

The Twain Shall Meet

Experts across the educational spectrum say it's not where you study that matters most, but how you study.

There are both good and bad face-to-face learning experiences, and the same holds true for distance programs, says Debra Humphreys, Vice President for Communications at the Association of American Colleges and Universities (AACU). Although Humphreys favors the traditional path to a college education – one that involves taking classes and participating in student life on campus – she sees an important role for distance education, especially for targeted online programs leading to certification or a degree such as a Masters in Education or an Online MBA.  Read More
