Dear Ms. Sciarrino:

I recently visited your Home page, which links to education-related resources.  This page caught my attention because I am with BrainTrack, the WWW's oldest and most complete directory of universities and colleges.  I noticed that the page links to U.S. college references.  We are a similar resource that offers information including school profiles and searches not available anywhere else.  I am writing to suggest that linking from your Home page to BrainTrack's U.S. Colleges and Universities page (http://www.braintrack.com/us-colleges) would also be a valuable reference for your visitors.  There are no fees or registrations required for using BrainTrack.

BrainTrack offers several advantages for visitors to your Home page, including:

  • Highly regarded:  Established in 1996, BrainTrack is referenced by thousands of sites, including: universities like Stanford, Harvard, and Yale; government organizations like the U.S. Library of Congress; and publishers like the New York Times and Elsevier.
  • Original profiles:  BrainTrack profiles almost every U.S. higher-education institution with original overviews, home page links, detailed degree data, similar schools, and more -- see for instance the profiles for Harvard and University of Michigan.  Most recently we have begun adding guides for finding schools, such as by religion, and articles on topics such as financial aid, accreditation, transfers, and international studies in the U.S.  All of our listed U.S. colleges and universities are recognized by the U.S. Department of Education as being accredited.
  • School searches:  Visitors can find schools by any search phrase, such as for an area of study.
  • Schools by professions:  BrainTrack is creating lists of U.S. universities and colleges that offer degrees for high-demand professions -- see for instance our lists for computer programmers and secondary school teachers.  For programmers and teachers you will also see that BrainTrack has scholarship programs and a new section featuring stories from real students.  You can find all of our covered professions on our Colleges by Careers page. 
  • World coverage:  BrainTrack links to over 10,000 university and college sites throughout the world.  The links are organized regionally and updated continually.
