As the school year begins, many high
school students, parents, and working Americans are thinking about their next
educational steps. With so many
postsecondary options to consider, it’s important that all prospective students
have the information they need to make the best decision possible. These decisions—to pursue a higher education,
with which type of degree, and at which institution—all have a lasting impact
on students and their futures.
That’s why the U.S. Department of
Education recently released its first annual update of the redesigned College
Scorecard—available at CollegeScorecard.ed.gov—to ensure that students and families have the
most up-to-date, comprehensive, and reliable information available on colleges,
all in an easy-to-understand format. The site allows
visitors to sort and filter their search results to easily compare schools and
decide which college makes the most sense when considering the typical costs,
average student loan amount, students’ ability to repay their loans, and their
future earnings.
