Flager College makes annual Princeton Review guide

Brian Thompson, Director of Public Information for Flagler College has updated Historic City News that the local college has been included, once again, in the Princeton Review’s annual college guide “The Best 373 Colleges”.

Only about 15 percent of the country’s 2,500 four-year colleges are profiled in the book.

“I am very pleased that Flagler College is listed, once again, in The Princeton Review’s ‘The Best 373 Colleges,’” said college President William T. Abare Jr. Ed.D. “The inclusion of Flagler in this prestigious college guide is a testimony to our college’s growing reputation, the quality of our academic programs, the caliber of our excellent faculty, and the strong support of our alumni and other benefactors.”

Flagler has been included in the guide since 2003.

“Our choices are based on institutional data we collect about schools, our visits to schools over the years, feedback we gather from students attending the schools, and the opinions of our staff and our 28-member National College Counselor Advisory Board,” said Robert Franek, senior vice president of publishing and author of the guide.

“The Best 373 Colleges” is the 19th edition of The Princeton Review’s annual “best colleges” book. It is one of about 165 Princeton Review books published by Random House in a line that also includes the annual guides.
