Customer Reviews

I love this guide. I want the latest CD-ROM interactive!

As a college counselor in a highly regarded prep school, I use the Fiske Guide heavily. I greatly value the paragraphs of text description of the colleges; while I advise students and their families that they should, ideally, visit colleges and speak with current students and recent alumni, I find that the Fiske Guide descriptions are one more invaluable piece of information among all the resources students can use in making their decisions. I also have an interactive version of the 1996 guide, loaded onto my hard disk from a CD-ROM. I use this constantly, printing out information for one or two schools for my students. I would like to order a more recent version, if one exists, but I have been frustrated in my efforts to learn how to do this!
