Our project focuses on propestive students giving them information on universities throughout the country. It contains a multitude of information about each university. This data can provides information on universities a prospective student may want or need in order to decide on what institution they might attend.
The data set we decided to use was provided from https://collegescorecard.ed.gov/data in .csv files. Information for the universities is provided from 2006 to 2015. The map data is from 2015 only.
For this project it was not feasible to create separate branches to work on different aspects of this project. We divided this project into parts that each person would be assigned. The different parts would be worked on in stages, first was cleaning and wrangling the data. Next, setting up the outline of the user interace for basic structure. Then, the following two parts were for the different vizualizations for interpreting the data. Lastly, adding the write project write up and adding finishing touches.
