    Schools and Other Content Information

    Please review the following topics for important information about the schools and other content published on this Site. From our experience, no information source is comprehensive, exhaustive or complete. Our Site is provided for informational purposes only. Our Site is one source of many for information about the schools. Below is information that should help you better understand our Site and items to keep in mind as you explore schools and careers in this field.

    This Site profiles many schools. While a number schools are listed for free, certain schools on our Site pay us a fee to advertise. Such advertising school placements are typically found as follows:

    • Our green “find a school”, “find schools”, “request info” buttons or the like are schools that pay us a placement fee.
    • Other ad listing types that are flagged as “matching schools’ ads”, “sponsored school”, “sponsored” or the like.

    Our Site does not provide a comprehensive list of all schools in the United States in this area of study or of all schools located in a specific area. However, we may provide extensive lists of programs (by state, those possessing some designation from a third-party such as US News rankings, by type of program, etc.), with most of those not being advertisers.

    Accreditation Status

    The accreditation status of a school, when listed, is included for informational purposes only and may have changed since publication. It is your responsibility to confirm a school’s accrediting body and accreditation status directly with the school prior to enrolling.

    Our goal is to include information on this Site that is helpful to Site visitors. However, given our breadth of information and sources, we can make no claims, warranties or guaranties about the accuracy, completeness or timeliness of such data and information. We may attempt to provide sources and footnotes where relevant so a visitor can further verify information.

    Sources of Facts and Quotations

    This Site may include data and facts that we obtain from third party sources. We also collect information directly from interviews with practitioners within the career field or students who have attended a school and have provided a review.

    Student reviews are submitted from individuals representing themselves to be current or former students. A fee is usually paid to the individual submitting the review.

    Whether paid for or not, Student reviews are based on the experiences of a few individuals and it is unlikely that you will have similar results.

    We strive to include only third party content that we feel originates from reliable and qualified sources, including government statistics, national surveys, actual practitioners from this career field, current or former students, or content from mainstream media publications.

    Tuition and Scholarships Information
