College Research is about to Get Easier!

I think we'd all agree that The Common Application is amazing. It has helped streamline the college application process, and we love when new schools decide to join "The Common App party." Well, a common website is about to make the research part of things even easier too.

A recent article by the New York Times looks at a new website that is currently in the testing stage. Any institution that decides to participate will be given a colorful, two-page site where they can share their information in the form of charts and graphics. Sweet!

Information will include the number of students who applied to the school, the number accepted, and the number who enrolled. Additionally, the pages will have information about undergraduate gender and ethnicity, graduation rates within four, five and six years of enrollment, the average amount of loans an undergraduate carries at graduation, and it will disclose the average net tuition.

So, look for the first version of this website in the coming months. As we progress deeper into Senior Season, every minute counts, and ease-of-use will become everyone's best friend.
