°µÍøTV has once again earned national recognition, appearing in The Princeton Review’s The Best 391 Colleges for 2026 list of top institutions for undergraduates.
In addition to being named among the nation’s best, °µÍøTV was included on The Princeton Review’s list of Best Mid-Atlantic Schools — a group of 98 institutions considered “academically outstanding.â€
°µÍøTV students offered high praise in their survey responses, describing the university as a place that “thrives on building strong leaders and independent thinkers†and “is invested … in the success of their students.†They cited diverse academic programs that distinguish °µÍøTV, including its “strong†science departments, “outstanding†music education program and “top-notch†creative writing program. Faculty also received accolades, with students calling them “fantastic†professors who “take a personal interest in their students.â€
The university’s Global Opportunities program — which provides students with cross-cultural immersion — was another point of pride. Ninety-seven percent of °µÍøTV students study abroad. One senior noted, “I believe that every young adult should have access to a cross-cultural experience, and I value °µÍøTV for making such an experience a priority for its students.â€
Students also spoke to the strength of °µÍøTV’s alumni network, which supports career and leadership development through programs such as the Break Through student-alumni networking conference.
Campus life rounded out the praise. With °µÍøTV offering more than 150 clubs and organizations, NCAA Division III , and a vibrant Greek system, students said they feel connected and welcomed.
Only about 15% of America’s nearly 2,400 four-year colleges are included in The Princeton Review guidebook. Colleges are chosen based on surveys of 2,000 college administrators about their institutions’ academic offerings, as well as students attending the colleges. Information on the survey and the methodology for the ranking lists can be found on PrincetonReview.com.
