Princeton Review names RIT among ‘best’
RIT is again being recognized as one of the nation’s best institutions for undergraduate education, according to The Princeton Review. The education services company features the university in the just-published 2009 edition of its annual book The Best 368 Colleges. Approximately 15 percent of America’s 2,500 four-year colleges are included in the book.
It has two-page profiles of each school and ranking lists based on student surveys that highlight the top 20 colleges in more than 60 categories. In its profile on RIT, The Princeton Review quotes extensively from the university’s students surveyed for the book.
The publication’s summary of student comments acknowledges RIT as a “serious, no-nonsense school with amazing facilities and a unique cooperative education program which is very good at preparing you to work in the real world.”
The Princeton Review is a New York-based company known for its test preparation, education and college admission services.
