"A work surely to become as influential as the ubiquitous Freshman Year Experience.... The book represents a new and necessary way of viewing college seniors. It is a 'must read' for those interested in the fulfillment of the promises (whether real or perceived) made through obtaining a college degree." (Journal of College and University Student Housing)

"This book has just about all the information necessary to inform readers about the senior year experience, including how to develop and implement services and programs that prepare seniors for their postcollege plans. Using real life examples from a wide variety of institutions, the authors provide practitioners with a rich source of ideas to implement on their own campuses. No other book I know puts it all together like this one. Highly recommAnded." (M. Lee Upcraft, research associate and affiliate professor emeritus, Center for the Study of Higher Education, Pennsylvania State University)

"A long-awaited book, destined to become a classic. The authors' thoughtful and comprehensive emphasis on the ingredients that make a quality experience for all students in their senior year is very interesting, extremely informative, and an inspiration for all those striving to create quality undergraduate education." (Jane A. Lamb Nichols, acting vice chancellor for academic and student affairs, University and Community College System of Nevada)
