The Insider S Guide To The Colleges 2005

College students discuss what colleges are really like, including grades, sports, social life, alcohol policies, gender relations, admissions, and classes.

Now in its 27th year, The Insider's Guide to the Colleges is an intelligent, sometimes irreverent, compilation of student-written articles about every aspect of college life, from cafeteria food to academics to the campus social scene.

With this new edition, The Insider's Guide to the Colleges has been, for 41 years, the most relied-upon resource for high school students looking for honest reports on colleges straight from the college students themselves. Having interviewed hundreds of their peers on more than 330 campuses and by getting the inside scoop on everything from the nightlife and professors to the newest dorms and wildest student organizations, the reporters at the Yale Daily News have created the most candid college guide ever. In addition to the in-depth profiles, this edition has been updated to include: * Essential statistics for every school, from acceptance rates to popular majors * A "College Finder" to help students zero in on the perfect school * All-new FYI sections with student opinions and outrageous advice The Insider's Guide to the Colleges cuts through the glossy Web sites and brochures to uncover the things that matter most to students, and by staying on top of trends, it gives both students and their parents the straightforward information they need to choose the school that's right for them.

Here is the only college guide written entirely by students, with the latest information from colleges coast to coast. This is the guide that tells college applicants what they really want to know about more than 300 schools in all 50 states and Canada, fully revised every year.
