Two new features to help search

New
As we continue to get feedback and iterate on providing value to students and parents, we have two new features.

Every college has a detailed page with additional financial and outcome data to keep you informed. Just click on the college name to see this page.  Tell us what you think by filling out the contact page or drop me an email as I read every message and appreciate hearing from you. 

Second, targeting colleges based on your family income is helpful.  Without filling out FAFSA or revealing your personal financial details, we have a new preset filter called Family Income.  Now when searching for a college with that filter, the average net price reported is based on that family income instead of the overall average.  This provides a more specific expectation of the net price of the college.  The overall net price is still available if you decide not to use this new filter. 

We are continuing to iterate on making a useful College Aid Index!
