Cut Through the Noise and Make Better College and Career Choices > --RICHARD LEVIN, President Emeritus, Yale University "Choosing College is a great guide for families and students to navigate the very complicated river of life at the college selection stage.

This book helps you to find 'your' way as there is no 'the' way. It is a great personal guide to a very complex process." --MICHAEL M. CROW, President, Arizona State University "Choosing College resonates with me as a parent of three college-aged daughters, an education executive, a former college instructor, and a public policy wonk. Horn and Moesta bring a new and timely framework to this vital decision-making process and families, like mine, as well as education leaders across many disciplines and sectors will find their insights applicable to the critically important life-long learning sector." --JANE SWIFT, Former Governor of Massachusetts > --BEV PERDUE, Former Governor of North Carolina "Choosing College tackles one of the most complex and foundational decisions facing society today. Michael Horn and Bob Moesta go beyond dissecting the decision and formulating a return-on-investment.
