Liberal Arts College Rankings

Best Colleges BadgeWe don’t believe that there is one school that is best for all students. Providing a single ranking of “the best liberal arts colleges” just doesn’t make sense to us. So, we developed more meaningful rankings in categories that impact the value of the overall college experience.

Here we rank the schools in a variety of ways based on hard data and current student opinions.

We used statistics and over 7,500 current Liberal Arts student responses from our annual Voice of the Student Survey to determine the top 20 Liberal Arts schools in each of the following categories.

icon 1 GradAcademic Challenge

SAT score and other popular statistics are very much relative to the individual school and prospective students, and often give skewed information regarding academic challenges. We found that the best way to quantify the difficulty of a college was to find out how the students perceived the challenge.

icon 14 Light BulbStudent Satisfaction
