Ohio
University Cited in Three Categories in
Kaplan Newsweek College
Catalog
Ohio
University has been identified by guidance
counselors across the nation as being a
best value for your money and for offering
excellent extracurricular activities,
according to the Kaplan Newsweek College
Catalog 2000.
The
catalog, available in bookstores in July,
lists Ohio University in three categories:
schools with the best range of
extracurricular activities, schools
representing the best value for the money
and schools that are "hidden treasures,"
colleges or universities that offer an
excellent education but aren't as renowned
as schools in the Ivy League.
The
guide is one of several Kaplan Books
offering advice on education and was
compiled by the staff of Kaplan
Educational Centers following a survey of
about 4,500 guidance counselors.
"Guidance
counselors have such a wealth of
information and they send hundreds of
students to colleges all the time," said
Laura Sigman, public relations manager for
Kaplan Books. "What they perceive is
important because it affects where
students go."
This
is the first time Kaplan Books has
conducted a survey of guidance counselors
for the annual publication, which includes
information on more than 1,000 U.S.
colleges and universities.
