UM-Flint Named a "Best in the Midwest"

The University of Michigan-Flint is one of the best colleges and universities in the Midwest according to The Princeton Review. The New York City-based education services company selected the school as one of the institutions it recommends in its "Best in the Midwest" section on its website feature 2009 Best Colleges: Region by Region.

In the Princeton Review profile the students at the University of Michigan-Flint say they enjoy one-on-one student-teacher relationships.

"We commend all of the schools we name this year as our 'regional best' colleges primarily for their excellent academic programs," says Robert Franek, Princeton Review's V.P., Publishing. "We selected them based on institutional data we collected from several hundred schools in each region, our visits to schools over the years, and the opinions of independent and high school-based college advisors whose recommendations we invite. We also take into account what each school's customers, their students, report to us about their campus experiences at their schools on our 80-question student survey."

The 630 colleges named "regional best" represent only about 25% of the nation's 2,500 four-year colleges.
