 The 2009-2010 College Destinations Index was released earlier this month identifies the top 75 locations in America for college study based on academic environment, quality of life and professional opportunities. The report ranked the Washington Metropolitan Area as the 4th best location in the United States, behind New York, San Francisco and Boston. With at least 140,000 college students, the college population accounts for one student for every eight residents in the District and suburban areas. The author of the report says the purpose of the index is to give prospective college students a guide when considering location, academics, sports program, and costs. Washington scored the highest in two particular areas of the index: concentration of college-age students as well as post-collegiate opportunity. To view the report, you can visit the American Institute for Economic Research. You can purchase the report for $2.00.
