    Students considering colleges, career schools and online degree programs are often confused by the concept and meaning of accreditation. And, they frequently confuse it with state licensure, which is very different.
  • Winning the Scholarship Game
    Maybe you're not the potential All-American college coaches dream about.
  • Linking Your Way to the Top of the Search Engines
    Except for worthwhile content, nothing can raise your rankings on major search engines (Google, Yahoo, MSN) faster than a good linking campaign. In fact, with enough good sites linking to you, you can be assured good search engine rankings. And, because a good linking campaign requires no investment or special talent, it is something all webmasters can do. Here are a few ways to find websites likely to link to you.
  • A College Degree; Your Ticket to $1,000,000
    According to the U.S. Department of Labor, the average U.S. full time worker earns $676 a week. You will probably not be shocked to learn that the Department of Labor found a direct correlation between workers' educational level and their earning power. Workers who had failed to complete high school earned about $396 a week, nearly $300 less than the overall average. High school graduates who did not attend college earned $562 a week on average, and workers with at least a college undergraduate degree earned about $1,000 a week, $325 above the overall average.
  • Choosing a College; How to Start
    With nearly 3,500 universities and colleges to choose from, any student who takes the time to thoroughly explore his or her educational options should have no problem gaining admission to several which meet their needs. In fact, if students realize there are many colleges, not just a few, in which they can be both happy and successful, if they get started on their college search no later than the fall of their junior year of high school, and if they use the informational resources available to them, their college search can be almost anxiety free. Remember that fewer than ten percent of the colleges and universities in the United are highly selective. So, unless you apply to a highly selective college or university, your chances for admission to the institutions you have chosen are probably pretty high if you have been realistic in your choices. Conversely, if your grades and standardized test scores are high enough so that highly selective colleges are a reasonable option for you, you should be a lock for admission to one of the many excellent but slightly less competitive institutions.
