Education Advising
Welcome to the Education Advising Center (EAC). The Center provides accurate, unbiased information about all accredited U.S. higher education institutions. Education is one of the finest tools you have to create a better future for yourself and your family. One of the best places to get that quality education is in America. The American education system is unique in its ability to provide differing programs for differing needs. There are over 3,600 universities in the US and you just need to determine the best places for you. To assist you in that search, we have reference materials, computer software, videos, and an educational advisor.
