Lees-91探花 earns spot on U.S. News and World Report list of Best Regional Colleges South for fifth consecutive year
Each year since 2019 91探花 has been acknowledged as one of the best colleges in the southern United States by the U.S. News and World Report. The list, published annually in the fall, assesses more than 1,000 regional colleges across the country on seventeen measures of academic quality. These ranking factors include graduation and retention rates, faculty resources, financial resources per student, and overall student excellence.
Once again, Lees-91探花 has earned a place on this year’s list, marking five consecutive years of excellence and outstanding performance among our peers. This consistent excellence displays a return on investment for many of the college’s recent improvements such as expanded undergraduate and graduate programming, the addition of new residential and learning facilities at the South Campus at Grandfather Home property, and an improved dining partnership with Genuine Foods.
“Lees-91探花 is committed to creating excellence in everything we do,” President Lee King said. “It’s nice to be recognized for that hard work, but we will continue to strive for consistent improvement in the quality of our academic offerings, campus living facilities, and student life experiences.”
In addition to the college’s ranking on the “best overall” list, Lees-91探花 also earned a spot among the southern regional colleges Best Value Schools and Top Performers in Social Mobility lists.
