Princeton Review Names TFC to Its List of “Best Colleges in Southeast”

Toccoa Falls College is one of the 142 best colleges in the Southeast, according to The Princeton Review.

The education services company lists TFC in the Best in the Southeast section of its “2020 Best Colleges: Region by Region” website feature that posted on August 6 at https://www.princetonreview.com/bestSEcolleges.

A total of 656 colleges are featured that The Princeton Review recommends over five regions: Northeast, Southeast, Midwest, West, and International. The colleges that made the “Best in the Southeast” list are located in twelve Southeastern states.

In its website profile on Toccoa Falls College, The Princeton Review describes the college as “committed to building character with intellect” and commends it for “teaching men and woman to become professionals in multiple fields to facilitate the spreading of the Gospel of Christ.”

“We chose Toccoa Falls College and the other outstanding institutions on this list primarily for their academics,” said Robert Franek, The Princeton Review’s Editor-in-Chief.

He noted that the company considered data from its survey of administrators at several hundred colleges in each region, information from staff visits to schools over the years, and the opinions of college counselors and advisors whose perspectives the company solicits.

“We also consider what students enrolled at the schools reported to us on our student survey about their campus experiences,” Franek added.

The Princeton Review survey asks students to rate their colleges on dozens of issues and to answer questions about themselves, their fellow students, and their campus life. Comments from surveyed students are quoted in the school profiles on The Princeton Review website.

The 142 colleges that The Princeton Review chose for its “Best in the Southeast” 2020 list are located in twelve states: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia.

The Princeton Review also designated 224 colleges in the Northeast, 159 in the Midwest, 127 in the West, and 4 in the International region as “best” in their locales on the company’s “2020 Best Colleges: Region by Region” lists.

Collectively, the 656 colleges on The Princeton Review’s “regional best” lists for 2020 constitute about 22% of the nation’s 3,000 four-year colleges.
