 University of Miami review January 10, 2007
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I find these College Prowler books very helpful. Gives way more details about the colleges than you find in college review books. The breakdown on academics, dorms, food, activities, and so on - with comments from students followed by a summary from the editor is particularly helpful.
Although each book is about $13 at Amazon, once you get you're list down to a few schools it's way cheaper to buy several books than travel to each school. My son is in the process of deciding on which school to attend and the College Prowler series has allowed him to contract his search to just a few schools. An outstanding investment.
 A Great College Resource September 26, 2006
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
After picking up a few of these College Prowler books, I can definitely say that they're a great resource for college searching. They're written by students at the schools, and the bulk is made up of survey style quotes from students, so they give you a real, unbiased, inside look at each college. If you're just interested in academic rankings and stats, there are probably better places to look, but if you want to know stuff like how good the dining halls are, or what the nightlife/local scene is like, then these books are your ultimate source. Highly recommended.
