A comprehensive guide to institutions of higher learning that are accredited by national and regional accrediting agencies, this annual volume has been published since 1964. This year's updated edition includes more than 6,000 public, private, two-year, four-year, and vocational institutions of higher education throughout the United States, as well as U.S.-chartered colleges and universities, accredited by a U.S.-recognized agency (as listed in this volume), in 18 countries abroad. Section 1 includes accredited degree-granting institutions; non-degree-granting institutions are listed in Section 2. Admissions officers, counselors, and employers rely upon the accurate and up-to-date information in this directly to determine entrance qualifications/requirements and tuition reimbursement eligibility. The entries are arranged by state in two broad categories: degree-granting and non-degree-granting institutions. Each institutional entry contains detailed facts such as type of institution (public or private), dates of accreditation, accrediting agency, academic calendar, degrees or certificates offered, as well as full contact information. A thorough index makes it easy to locate any institution listed in the directory.
