College Counseling Links

Here are some of our favorite links, but by no means is this list intended to be exhaustive. Our goal here is to concentrate on the very best tools we know.

College Navigator

Plug in the name of a school and discover up-to-date admissions, major, costs and much more. An extremely useful site for detailed review of schools.

CollegeBoard’s Major & Career Center

Yes! An English Major does lead to many careers.

College Data

This is almost as useful as the Common Data Set for just about any college you want to research. In one source learn median GPA, SAT, ACT, of the incoming class.

Unigo

Explore your colleges through videos, interviews, and articles. Though the site is a bit commercial and busy, it throbs with information in every nook and cranny.

High School Counselor Week

This is a superb newsletter that aggregates articles about college preparation and admissions from the New York Times to the Sacramento Bee on a biweekly basis.  

Turbo Tax College Finance

This is an edifying site for many of the financial aspects of funding a college education.
