Your choice of college is a choice for a lifetime. Research, make visits, consult with your counselor, sorting and evaluating your choices is a complicated process.

Now you have another tool to help you. Choose a University ’09 is the only iPhone App that presents college data visually. Using data from the best college guide in America, the Fiske Guide to Colleges, this app displays each college as a unique shape, allowing you to:


* Rapidly sort a list of 310 schools (you can sort by name, region, cost or even percentage of returning freshman, which is indicative of satisfaction with a student’s choice)

* Quickly see how your schools of choice rate on the factors that are important to you

* Recognize unexpected similarities and differences among schools, and more importantly, recognize where you can make a difference at the school you do choose to attend.

Engage your eyes, engage your mind, and then use the app to engage in a discussion with your parents, counselor, or fellow students to make one of the most important decisions of your life.

*Today we are featuring the school of the Big Bang Theory, Cal Tech, in the bright orange butterfly shape. Then consider the schools with the highest number of returning freshmen, or repeat customers. Can you recognize how Cal Tech, and schools like Cal Tech, are different?

One big difference is at 10:00 on the clock chart - Social Life. Another big difference is at 6:00 - A liberal arts honor society on campus.

The detail screens on Cal Tech and Pamona reveal much of what you what you need to know. Links to each of the 310 school websites will tell you even more.
