"FACTS" is a directory of information about various aspects of New England higher education. In this special issue, state-by-state institutional listings provide relevant information about New England institutions of higher education. Encompassed within each listing are data about tuition and room and board charges, enrollment figures, endowment, physical plant values, and the number of faculty and staff at each of the approximately 280 institutions. A narrative description of each institution precedes each listing. At the end of each school's information is a summary of admissions information, which includes application deadlines, application fees, required admissions examinations, special admissions programs, and phone numbers for admissions offices. The directory includes names and titles of school administrators. In addition to school information, the directory presents data on higher education in New England. Information is presented in 163 tables and charts including New England higher education enrollment, degrees conferred, student migration, faculty data, federal and state financing of higher education, research and development endeavors, and minority participation levels. The directory is published annually. Data on higher education is revised each year. (HB)
