Colleges of Distinction

The Colleges of Distinction is a unique group of 200+ colleges and universities that excel at 1) engaging students, 2) providing outstanding teaching, 3) offering vibrant communities, and 4) producing successful outcomes, the pillars of a strong and active undergraduate education.

The guidebook assists high school students and parents in finding colleges that suit individual personalities and career objectives. Because the majority of college-bound teenagers do not attend the elite, name-brand institutions found on commercial rankings lists, the Colleges of Distinction guidebook highlights four-year institutions that are considered "hidden gems."

The book will incorporate multi-page profiles of the chosen schools and an introduction describing the importance of the four criteria above, written by a task force of college presidents, academic deans and faculty, enrollment managers, high school parents, and high school and college students.
