The Princeton Review has named Washington College one of its top colleges for 2010. A total of 373 schools were included, about 15-percent of all the US colleges and universities. The Princeton Review uses both institutional data and student input to create its profiles of the selected colleges and universities. Washington College students describe “a great, small-school environment where everyone is always friendly and active,” and where professors “are always available and willing to help or even just chat about daily life.” They give high marks to WCs “exceptional pre-med program” and “strong environmental studies program” and note it is “a very good writing school.”
