Does anyone know if there a website that has a US and state by state college/university map? It would be helpful as we are beginning to plan college visits. Living in SoCal all my life, my sense of geography of the right side of the country is not so good

TIA!

I use an older version of this map, and find it useful:

US College & University Reference Map

http://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/1593530064/ref=pd_rvi_gw_1/102-6930037-3170509

And the college search engine on the http://www.ACT.org site lets you specify a search within a certain number of miles of a city or zip code. That can be very useful if you know you'll be visiting a particular college and want to see what other schools are within, say, a 50 mile or 100 mile radius.

Thank you Carolyn, I just ordered the book. I guess I was hoping that a parent with a lot of tech savvy had mapped out every college in the country with an interactive website. It's only a matter of time right?
