ULVUTV



The following is paid for from ReviewMe. I normally don't do these but this is relevant to helping high school seniors.

There are a bunch of college-oriented websites/social communities popping up because of the cash and PR cow that facebook has become. Now, there's a new site called ULVUTV. What I noticed first about their UT-Austin page is that the postal address is very odd. The address they give is of the Psychology building which is on the outskirts of campus. As for the ratings, I think they're somewhat accurate except for the dorms. Jester, the 14-story, 2,846 person dorm, actually has more spacious rooms than the majority of dorms in the country. Plus, mini-fridges and microwaves are included.

While I think the concept for LVUTV is neat, 1 minute clips of wild college kids can't portray an accurate picture of a college. I also think that the "incredible job placement services" varies depending on degree.
