SLIPPERY ROCK, Pa. — Slippery Rock University has been recognized among the best colleges in its region by The Princeton Review. SRU appeared on the "Best Mid-Atlantic" list in The Princeton Review's 2024 Best Colleges Guide.

Only about a quarter of the nation's four-year colleges earn the distinction of "regional best" from the Princeton Review editors, who consider these schools "academically outstanding and well worth consideration in your college search."

The Princeton Review ratings are based on scores from 60 to 99 in eight categories that come from surveys of administrators at the schools who annually provide institutional data. Schools are grouped into seven zones -- Northeast, South, Southwest, Midwest, Mid-Atlantic, West and International.

SRU was one of only 96 colleges and universities listed in the Mid-Atlantic region consisting of five states -- Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia -- and the District of Columbia. The schools in each region are listed in alphabetical order by school name, not by ranking.

The Princeton Review is a tutoring, test prep and college admission services company and is not affiliated with Princeton University. The complete listing of the "Best Mid-Atlantic" institutions is available on the Princeton Review website.
