UCF Joins Top Universities in Princeton Review’s Best Colleges Guide

By UCF Staff April 22, 2005

The University of Central Florida will be included for the first time in The Princeton Review’s annual guide to the best institutions for undergraduate education in the United States.

“The Best 361 Colleges: 2006 Edition,” which will be available in bookstores in late August, selects schools based on their academic programs, the opinions of students, parents and educators and other data. The book is the “flagship guide to the ‘crème of the crop’ institutions for undergraduates,” said Robert Franek, The Princeton Review’s vice president of publishing.

The Princeton Review’s recognition comes as the academic quality of UCF students continues to rise. Freshmen admitted in 2004 posted average SAT scores of 1186 and average high school GPAs of 3.84.

When the book is published, ranking lists and excerpts from the college profiles will be posted at www.princetonreview.com. The Princeton Review is a New York-based company known for its test preparation books and courses. The company is not affiliated with Princeton University.
