UMW is ranked regionally as a \u201cbest bang for the buck\u201d choice and listed among the nation\u2019s top 100 liberal arts colleges in <em>Washington Monthly<\/em>. Mary Washington is also included in <em>The Best 390 Colleges<\/em>, the latest higher education rankings edition from The Princeton Review.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Princeton Review rankings come straight from student surveys focused on their college experiences. For UMW, the survey says that students are happy, love Fredericksburg, Virginia, and find majors and activities that matter to them. Biology, psychology, business administration, and communication and digital studies rise to the top of the list of popular pursuits, and UMW Theatre earns a spot in the best 25 theatre programs for the second year in a row. Mary Washington also received a place in the publication&#8217;s Best Regional Colleges category, landing among the top 100 schools in the Mid-Atlantic region.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Noted for offering a range of disciplinary and interdisciplinary programs and a \u201csmall community with plenty of individualized attention for students,\u201d Mary Washington and its accolades center on students.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery student at Mary Washington has a different background and a different perspective to offer \u2026 which makes things in the classroom 10 times more interesting and engaging,\u201d said one student survey respondent. Students also noted that \u201ckindness is widespread, and when you are trusted and respected in the community, many students embrace you as a peer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That support extends from the campus experience through academics. As one student summarized, faculty \u201cwant you to succeed and outline their classes in such a way that success is easy if you stay caught up with assignments,\u201d and they \u201cdevote plenty of class time to discussions around real topics and situations to help ensure we come out prepared.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Students also should be prepared when they apply. While UMW is test optional, rigor of high school courses and GPA are important factors. Interviews; extracurricular activities, including volunteer and work experience; and standardized test scores may be considered, and The Princeton Review shares as \u201can inside word\u201d that all aspects of the application carry some weight. Successful applicants tend to have a handful of honors, advanced placement and\/or IB classes.<\/p>\n<p>That well-rounded approach puts Mary Washington on The Princeton Review\u2019s list annually.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe colleges we profile in our book are truly a select group: they constitute about 15% of America&#8217;s four-year institutions. We chose them primarily based on our high opinion of their academic offerings,&#8221; said\u00a0Rob Franek, editor-in-chief at The Princeton Review and author of\u00a0<em>The Best 390 Colleges. &#8220;<\/em>The colleges that make our\u00a0book&#8217;s\u00a0ranking lists do so entirely as a result of the opinions of their customers \u2013 students attending the colleges \u2013 who complete our 89-question survey\u00a0about their school.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Princeton Review tallied surveys of 168,000 students \u2013 about 430 per school on average.\u00a0The rankings are available online at PrincetonReview.com or in this year\u2019s publication, <em>The Best 390 Colleges. <\/em><\/p>\n<p>Also published this month are the annual <em>Washington Monthly<\/em> rankings, which consist of three equally weighted portions: social mobility, research, and community and national service. The top-ranked colleges are considered excellent across the full breadth of the measures, with the publication awarding additional acclaim to schools in the \u201cBest Bang for the Buck\u201d category, which stems from the rankings\u2019 social mobility portion.<\/p>\n<p><strong>UMW comes in 96th among the nation\u2019s Best Liberal Arts Colleges and 103rd in the Best Bang for the Buck category in the Southeast region in the <em>Washington Monthly <\/em>2024 College Rankings. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The liberal arts colleges ranking focuses on undergraduate education with a measurement framed around schools\u2019 contributions toward the public good or what they do for the country. UMW continues to have a strong social mobility rank, based on Pell-grant initiatives such as the Tuition Promise, service initiatives, including the ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge and many others. In addition, UMW advanced in the research rank based on the number of alumni who go on to earn doctoral degrees. Each one started with an undergraduate education at the University of Mary Washington, where they learned from faculty mentors who inspired their trajectories and connected them with research projects, service learning, internships, study abroad opportunities and careers.<\/p>\n<p>Applications for admission to UMW are open now for fall 2025 with more information available at <a href=\"https:\/\/umw.edu\/apply\">https:\/\/umw.edu\/apply<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The University of Mary Washington continues to be among the top universities in the college guidebooks.
