Overview

Educational Directories Unlimited, Inc. (EDU) is the leading producer of online academic program directories that target prospective students. The firm's product line centers on its two flagship web directories, Studyabroad.com and Gradschools.com.

EDU's online directories provide in-depth and current information on college level academic programs. The sites are available to prospective students at no charge and are supported by academic advertising as schools pay annual fees for web links.

The sites are modeled as online yellow pages of higher educational programs. Free listings are offered for all academic programs, giving a brief overview of the program's offering and basic contact information. As an option, schools can advertise on the sites by purchasing links to their web page so that the prospective student can further explore the school's offering. Web links are not a part of the free listings.

The EDU systems design provides a unique utility for prospective students, advisors, and educational administrators. The wealth of information and the ease of use of the EDU web sites has resulted in a significant market share of the educational shoppers market. The EDU sites are advantageously poised to serve as the leader of computer based collegiate recruiting, especially as online electronic commerce continues to evolve.

EDU recognizes that there is a profound shift in advertising and marketing strategies, particularly in the college market, with the advent of the Internet. The two main sites have gained widespread recognition and support in the academic community. The Studyabroad.com and the Gradschools.com brand are well established and it is the intention of the company to leverage this brand to introduce new products and services. Educational Directories Unlimited, Inc. maintains and develops its academic web sites from its headquarters in suburban Philadelphia. The firm is privately held.

Educational Directories offers employees excellent benefits including profit sharing, a flexible, exciting and productive work environment and a wealth of opportunities for growth.
