University is a big decision. At anywhere from $20,000 -$100,000 University is the 3rd largest purchase we make in our life. It influences the future direction of our life. Our occupation, happiness, health and wealth.
Currently, the only way for anyone to make such a big decision is to rely on sales pitches at university orientations, education agencies, word of mouth from family or friends, or dry guidebooks, with only a few pages for each university, written by a journalist or university administrator who hasn't been at university as a student for years.
