How do we do it?

• Over 100,000 college-bound high school students are asked to participate.
• A focus group identifies the functional features of each site.
• Benchmarks are research-validated and reviewed each year.
• Statistical tests determine the relative importance of each feature to students.
• Institutions are initially scored on a 100 point scale, then letter grades are assigned using a traditional curve.
• And that's not all, this project takes us months to put together each year to make sure we get it right!

Did You Know...?

• Seven out of 10 students say they have a lower opinion of a school that was recommended to them, based on a poor website experience.
• Seventy percent of students indicate that college websites are the best way to find information on academic programs.
