The contents of the guidebook are organized in a manner that we hope will ease the reader through the entire college visit process. The introductory material contains information on college search preparation and East Coast trip planning, while the main body of the text guides the traveler up and down the Atlantic Seaboard, directing the reader to 35 top-rated East Coast college campuses. Along the way, students are shown how to evaluate every college campus they visit, and they are encouraged to judge for themselves whether or not a particular college campus is a good fit for them. The book contains helpful maps and charts, and concludes with a glossary of often used terms and suggestions for further reading.
