Aside from fastweb, princeton review, college confidential and Yahoo's education sites, what are good web sites to research potential colleges? My daughter has narrowed her choices to UCONN, Ohio State, Penn State, Duquesne, Pitt, Toledo, SUNY Buffalo and the University of Ohio. We've gone on college visits and have looked at the colleges' websites. We've read the College Prowler books, and anything we can find in the bookstores. We're still looking for feedback on the schools by students, or other info that might help us weed the list down. Any suggestions?. Thank you!

collegeboard.com helped me a great deal when i was applying to colleges. I chose UCONN and couldn't be happier. It is a beautiful campus, good classes, lots to do on the weekends (the put on a late night program every weekend for an alternative to parties with alcohol), and friendly people. I would recommend that she does an overnight here to see if it is right for her.

Sparknotes.com has a pretty good college search section. It includes feedback by students on dorm building conditions, class sizes, faculty involvement, etc. I hope that helps a bit, Good Luck :)

I've found that collegeboard.com can be a huge help. It gives a good amount of information on a lot, if not all colleges. Hope it helps
