Have you ever wished you could show the geographic distribution of your alumni or students?  Such maps would be great to display in your Alumni Center or Student Union, show online, or publish in your newsletter.  They are also very useful to administrators, helping them assess recruitment strategies, among many other applications.  Personalized Map Company not only makes this possible, but we make it easy and inexpensive!

What is needed: Simply provide a dBASE, ASCII, or Excel file with five-digit zip codes of each student or alumnus (one line per person).  Include your digital school logos (or we can download them off your internet site) and indicate your basic school colors and the font (type style) you wish for the map title.  Since we only need your zip codes, there's no need to worry about sending confidential information!
