I think this book's value is that it opens eyes and reminds people that there are different values to the college experience. I have seen some of these schools in person and attended one of them, and they truly are a higher caliber as liberal arts colleges go. For those who are looking for a high quality education that doesn't involve a generic and predictable route (whether the route is the hackneyed Ivy League "experience" or the typically overpacked state school) this is a refreshing reminder that the world is not flat. May do a lot of kids a lot of good! My only complaint is that the private school is a main focus, whereas there certainly are some public schools that are just as good an opportunity if not always so lavish. The surrounding off-campus community can also have a great deal to offer a college student, and can inherently add advantage to schools that didn't make the cut in this book.My other beef is that a lot of the outlook about a school will come from the college's president or another chosen administrator.... For every bit of higher quality information, the quotes from such people detracts from Pope's argument for a school. The budget of a student is not necessarily given a high priority either, Hard facts readily available and published in multiple reliable college search books show the exiting debt levels for the average graduate of certain schools (like Univ of Puget Sound) to be extremely high, and percentages of employment within a certain time frame to be relatively low. College isn't all about getting that piece of paper to get a job, but some of the schools showcased in the book are extremes in pricing at this time. Should that be ideal, or rewarded? Extreme debt can certainly "change lives" after graduation. Teens, especially, looking at schools may not fully understand just how hard it can be once the diploma is in hand and the loan payments begin.This is a good launching point to considering the world of colleges out there, but it shouldn't be the final word.
Without a doubt, THE MOST HELPFUL book in aiding my children to find colleges that are good for them. We are living in an unfortunate time in regards to tertiary education. College tuition costs are nothing short of outrageous and significantly contribute to the stratification of classes we live with today in America, the application/selection process is a nightmare ("colleges pick you, you don't pick colleges") and depress the hopes and dreams of our youth, and the real value of the education received is often questionable. Loren Pope's "Colleges That Change Lives" is a voice of reason and hope to parents and kids going through this process. He emphasizes what is really the point here: the education itself. I deeply appreciate his thoughtful analysis as to what makes a great college. For the past 2 years, this book has not left my night table!
another super college guide which takes you out of the chronic US(eless) News lists and into schools that are designed not to impress with names but with learning. a great way to find a school which is a right fit for a kid. i've used it with my students and with my own son as well. it's a great way to find a place that makes you happy rather than a place that makes others happy.
Liked it. Also found a website on niche that gave a lot of good info. This book includes my alma mater, which I really agree was a college that could change lives. In the past few years though, it has been all over the news because of it's stance against gays and it's inclusive issues with diverse faculty. I'm wondering if it's time to update this book.
...with a high school senior. We have visited several of the schools recommended by this book, with mixed results. What has helped most has been to absorb several points of view. Highly recommend that you read "Debt-Free U: How I Paid for an Outstanding College Education Without Loans, Scholarships, or Mooching off My Parents" along with "Colleges That Change Lives." That helps build a balanced and realistic foundation from which to work.
Great perspective on the college search process, really helpful. It made me relook at our fundamental criteria for schools as we were considering Ivy League schools for me son. I also loved the updates 10 years later. Examining what the graduates actual outcomes are is very valuable. Who wants to send their child to a school where they might not have marketable skills when the graduate, if they graduate at all.
Great Book! I give it to all my friends Sophomores so they can start thinking about college. Introduces you to smaller schools that my Chicago kids may overlook. Even if the schools are not the right fit, it gives the kids opportunities to see whats available. 2 of my daughter's top 5 we found from the book and would have never heard of them with out it. The fact that there are only 40 schools makes it a great 1st book because most of the other resources have 100's of items and it gets overwhelming.
