Benefits of technology

[0074]This invention saves time by maximizing efficiency and saves money by minimizing travel costs.

Problems solved by technology

However, no prior art was found that specifically discloses a specialized College / University (“C / U”) visitation program to aid in locating relevant nearby C / Us or which concerns a visitation trip where a goal is a pre-attendance C / U trip.
Most college research tools cover so many bases that they either don't address the college visit in depth at all or they spend time addressing what goes on after the student is enrolled in school.

Embodiment Construction

[0089]The following description is intended to facilitate the understanding of the present invention without limiting its scope:

[0090]According to one embodiment, the invention is a system and a method to conduct a search to visit colleges and / or universities (C / Us) comprising the steps of:[0091]entering student data into an input device;[0092]entering, locating information and a desired radius limitation into an input device; and[0093]generating C / Us relevant to the student data and within the radius limitation.

[0094]Additionally, the system and method of the invention can have a software element that can communicate with a map API (application programming interface) to provide directions and / or a map. The map API can be sourced from a third party if desired. Information on public or other transportation (including but not limited to train, plan, boat, and / or ground transportation information) can be obtained from the internet and provided in addition to or instead of the direction...
