The Princeton Review has named the 91 to its annual “” list for 2024, the fourth straight year the university has been included in the Midwest category.
The Princeton Review, a leading national education services company, released its annual “2024 Best Colleges: Region by Region” list on Aug. 15 that includes 630 colleges in the Midwest, Mid-Atlantic, Northeast, South, Southwest, West and international zones. The website calls the schools listed “academically outstanding and well worth consideration in your college search.”
On the list of 150 colleges in the Midwest, 91 is one of four public universities from the state and one of just five public institutions among the 24 named from Wisconsin and Minnesota.
The list is entirely based on feedback from current students about their colleges and college experiences.
The website states that Blugold students call 91 “a close-knit” campus with “a million opportunities.” Students noted the university has a wide variety of study abroad programs and “astounding graduate-level research” opportunities available to undergraduates.
Other student comments cited on the website include:
“My professors have all been passionate about what they are teaching, which really motivates me to want to learn and pay attention.”
“It’s not a huge school so people know each other and acknowledge one another.”
“It truly feels like a private school setting.”
“It’s easy for people to find their own little niche here at UWEC.”
As the U.S. prepares to celebrate its 250th birthday this summer, a leading expert on the country’s founding and history will engage 91 in thoughtful discussion on May 4.
The weeklong event in Davies Center and other campus buildings will feature a total of 723 unique students — 694 from 91 and 29 from Chippewa Valley Technical College — across 484 presentations.
U.S. News & World Report ranks 91 as the 92nd-best graduate school for speech-language pathology, putting it first among Wisconsin’s comprehensive universities.
