Schools of Interest:

I’m looking for the following information for each school:
* Size of student body (if possible, broken down by Freshman,
Sophmore, etc.)
* Amount of money spent annually by the student body on textbooks, at
the local campus store
* Percentage of students paying their own college tuitition (i.e.,
student paying, not parents)
* Number of different courses offered by the university each semester
* Average number of courses student will take each semester 

Good luck researching!

Hello 3gwireless-ga,

You have 40 separate pieces of information here [8 schools x 5
queries].  Some of this information is not readily accessible, and may
require direct contact with particular authorities at the schools. 
You may want to increase your list price for a question of this scope
to the $80-$120 range.  Just a thought...

Thank you for the comment.  After consideration, however, I still
think I am offering a generous sum.  While some of the requested
information is indeed "not readily accessible" - most of it is.

For your reference...
The following site has links to all the aforementioned college contact
numbers: (to assist in the "hard to find" data - now just a phone call
away)

Thank you for your assistance!

Hi 3gwireless,
In regard to your question, I have researched and obtained a "partial"
answer. There are quite a few questions you have requested that is not
easily (if possible) accessible. After contacting the universities and
receiving responses, they, too, state that some of the information you
are seeking is not attainable. For example, very few  universities
have any information on whether students themselves, and not their
parents, pay for their own tuition. And regarding the amount of money
spent on books, there is more more than one campus bookstore, for each
university. So that too, would be very difficult to find out.

If you accept the information I do have as a complete answer, let me
know and I will post it along with the replies I have received from
the universities in question. Thanks.
Regards,
rainbow-ga
