Natural Horsemanship Education
"Horse Schools" is amazing. It details horsemanship educational schools internationally by the discipline, costs, degrees offered, location, etc... It is easy to follow and has saved me much time because this book has done the initial searching for me.

Great book for parents of horse-loving high school students
This book is GREAT as far as helping narrow down what schools offer the degree or program that your college-bound student is looking for.It's a fabulous resource for parents as it lists tuition costs, etc., all in one place - no more searching websites, calling schools only to find out you can't afford it.I would recommend finding a book that helps you and your child narrow down their field of interest first, though, since it really doesn't go into detail what the different degrees mean to "lay persons."

Surveys an immense number of learning facilities
