CTCL (Colleges That Change Lives, Inc) was founded as a result of a book of the same name—Colleges That Change Lives, researched and written by retired New York Times education editor, journalist, and longtime student advocate Loren Pope. Mr. Pope selected the colleges featured in his first book long before the CTCL non-profit organization was formed. Member schools have never paid any fees to Mr. Pope or his publisher to be included in hisbooks: the selections were solely based on the independent judgment and recognized expertise of Mr. Pope himself.
CTCL is dedicated to the advancement and support of a student-centered college search process. Namely, we work to educate families that the criteria used by most college bound students and their counselors, such as name and prestige, do not acknowledge the importance of understanding an individual student’s needs and how they “fit” with the mission and identity of an individual college community (Excerpt from CTCL site).
