This annual directory is the only official guide to accredited institutions of higher education. Published continuously since 1964, this indispensable index is used by college admissions officers, guidance and career counselors, and employers who rely upon the accurate and up-to-date information to determine degree and credit transfer requirements, entrance requirements, and tuition reimbursement eligibility. This edition lists more than 6,600 accredited higher education institutions, including public and private; two-year, four-year, and vocational and technical schools; as well as some colleges and universities located outside the United States. All are accredited by national, regional, or professional and specialized accrediting agencies recognized by either the U.S. Department of Education or the Council for Higher Education Accreditation. The directory is divided into three sections: degree-granting institutions, non-degree-granting institutions, and accredited programs affiliated with nonaccredited institutions. In each section, institutions are listed alphabetically by state. A comprehensive index makes it easy to find any institution and includes extensive cross-references.
