CollegeLink.com Incorporated
 PROFILE
Think you might be college material? CollegeLink.com can help you decide. The company generates more than 80% of its revenue by staging its Making College Count, Making High School Count, and Making Your College Search Count presentations at high schools across the US. Corporations sponsor the presentations, and funding from Procter & Gamble accounted for 27% of the company's 2000 revenue. CollegeLink.com also offers several related online services including a college search and selection tool, financial aid information, and a tool students can use to apply to nearly 1,000 colleges using a single application. Struggling financially, CollegeLink.com was purchased in 2001 by TMP Worldwide (parent of Monster.com).
