NEW COLLEGE DATA to Compare Schools - from the President!

collegescorecard.ed.gov — will allow students and parents to compare schools based on measurements that are important to them. Using the website, for example, a student might search for schools with average annual costs of under $10,000, a graduation rate higher than 75 percent and average salaries after graduation of more than $50,000 per year.

The scorecard will be available to students on mobile phones, the department said.
College search sites, such as ScholarMatch and StartClass, are using the new scorecard data to develop customized searches for students on their websites.
