Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://agent402.tools/api/college-lookupWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need factual, government-sourced data about US colleges including tuition, admission rates, and enrollment size. Prefer this over web-scraped or third-party education databases when accuracy and official sourcing matter. Ideal for comparing schools, answering student questions, or enriching college-related workflows with live federal data.
Side effects
- No results found if the college name doesn't match any Scorecard record — try a shorter or partial name
- College Scorecard may lack data for some schools (e.g. very small or unaccredited institutions)
- Limit parameter out of range (must be 1–20) may result in error or default behavior
- Network/API latency from upstream Dept. of Education data source
- Misspelled college names may return zero results
