TROY named one of best colleges in Southeastern United States
TROY – Troy University has been named among the top colleges in the southeastern United States by the Princeton Review.
The University is among 146 schools receiving the “Best in the Southeast” designation, as rated by student opinions on 656 college and university campuses in the region.
“This distinction underscores our philosophy at TROY that each student is important. At Troy University, our students are known by name rather than by number and that translates into a quality education,” said Dr. Jack Hawkins Jr., the University’s chancellor.
The 80-question survey asks students to rate their schools on several topics and report on their experiences at them. Topics include: academics/administration, life at the school, their fellow students, and themselves. Surveys are conducted on campuses and via the Princeton Review website at which students have the option of completing a secure survey online.
“We believe these schools uphold the standards of our Best Southeastern College distinction and provide students with a wide breadth of excellent schools to consider,” said Robert Franek, publisher and editorial director of The Princeton Review and author of The Best 361 Colleges.
The University has also recently received a similar designation by U.S. News and World Report.
