Over the past decade, Choosing the Right College has established itself as the indispensable resource for students--and parents--who want the unvarnished truth about America's top colleges and universities. It is the most in-depth, independently researched college guide on the market, using on-campus sources to turn up the best--and worst--aspects of nearly 150 schools. Just as important, Choosing the Right College covers the intellectual, political, and social conditions that really matter, including:

*The integrity and rigor of the curriculum
*Which courses and professors to take--and which to avoid
*The prevalence of politics in the classroom and the state of free speech--all highlighted with ISI's unique "traffic light"
*Living arrangements, safety, and other keys to student life
*How to get a real education at any school

Beyond all that, this brand-new edition of Choosing the Right College features a host of innovations, including: "So You're Looking For . . . ," top-five lists of colleges for all types of students; a quick list of each school's strengths and weaknesses; an insider's look at the pros and cons of online education; and more.

This new edition of Choosing the Right College also provides the financial information families need in this age of soaring tuition. What are the most overpriced colleges--and which are relatively good values? What is the average student-debt load? To cap it all off, Choosing the Right College introduces the groundbreaking feature "Blue Collar Ivies"--in-depth reports on the best affordable colleges in all fifty states.

Choosing the Right College 2014-15 will completely change the way young people make a life-altering decision.
