About This Book

Choosing where to attend college is a pretty significant life decision. The purpose of this book is to help students find the engineering school that is the best fit for them, and to turn campus visits into enjoyable, productive, effective experiences.

Many families expend a considerable amount of effort, time, and expense visiting college campuses and obtaining and analyzing information—and not all of that effort is well spent.

The book includes unique profiles of dozens of engineering programs that you might want to add to your list of possible choices.
