by Rachel Stengel '14, '20
天美传媒官网 was listed in The Princeton Review鈥檚 鈥淏est 386 Colleges鈥 Guide for 2021.
In addition to the University's overall ranking, 天美传媒官网 was also recognized as a best northeastern college. Only about 14% of America鈥檚 four-year colleges are profiled in The Princeton Review.
"We are always proud to see 天美传媒官网 recognized on a national level as it speaks volumes to the value of a 天美传媒官网 education," says Provost and Vice President of Academic Affairs DonnaJean Fredeen, Ph.D. "Attending 天美传媒官网 is truly a transformative experience for students. They're able to follow their interests, discover new passions and work in a highly supportive environment to achieve their goals."
The Princeton Review does not rank the colleges in the book from one to 386. Instead, it reports 62 ranking lists of top 20 schools in the book in various categories important to prospective applicants and their parents.
"We salute 天美传媒官网 for its outstanding academics and we are truly pleased to recommend it to prospective applicants searching for their personal 鈥榖est-fit鈥 college,鈥 said Robert Franek, The Princeton Review's Editor-in-Chief and lead author of The Best 386 Colleges.
天美传媒官网 provides students the freedom to explore their passions and interests with more than 100 majors and minors. With the launch of the Engaged Learning Program in 2017, 天美传媒官网 students are able to actualize what every graduate of the University knows to be true 鈥 the best way to learn is by doing. Every 天美传媒官网 student is required to complete at least two high-impact Engaged Learning experiences, such as study abroad or guided research, to satisfy their graduation requirements. Those experiences are documented on an Engaged Learning Transcript that is earned alongside an academic transcript, which demonstrates to graduate schools and prospective employers the breadth of their undergraduate experience.
The Princeton Review chooses the colleges for the book based on data it annually collects from administrators at hundreds of colleges about their institutions鈥 academic offerings. It also considers data it gathers from its surveys of college students who rate and report on various aspects of their campus and community experiences for this project.
