About GoCollege.com

GoCollege.com offers helpful information for current and soon to be college students. The site was formed in 1997 to guide students on the complexity of the admissions and financial-aid process. GoCollege is also an early adopter of harnessing the power of the Internet. The site offered one of the first online search engines for scholarships and grants.

In 1999, ABC Network's 20/20 program featured GoCollege as a reliable website for information on finding financial aid.

Our goal is to continue bringing useful, unbiased and up-to-date college related information to students, parents and education professionals. We have been mentioned and praised in thosands of websites and referenced in dozens of books.
