For the fifth consecutive year, the Princeton Review has named Old Dominion University among the best colleges in the Southeast.
The Princeton Review's 2021 Best 大学: Region by Region list profiles more than 600 institutions. The Southeastern list showcases the top 142 schools in Alabama, 阿肯色州, 佛罗里达, 乔治亚州, 肯塔基州, 路易斯安那州, 密西西比州, 北卡罗莱纳, 南卡罗来纳, 维吉尼亚州, West 维吉尼亚州 and Tennessee.
Institutions featured in the publication met criteria for academic excellence in their regions. 学生, who were interviewed anonymously, were asked 70 questions about academics, campus life and the student body.
学生 at Old Dominion cited it as a "research-oriented" institution with professors who offer "informative lectures and study materials and gear their classes not just towards theoretical knowledge, but real-world application."
Respondents also touted ODU for its diverse and inclusive campus, where "freedom of expression is always encouraged."
学生 praised such features as counseling, 卫生保健, accessibility and the writing center, which "allows students to bring in papers to have them reviewed by a professional so we can receive tips that will help to strengthen our writing."
上个月, Old Dominion was named a world leader in addressing inequality in the Times Higher Education Impact Rankings 2020. Last fall, ODU was named a 2020 Best National University by U.S. 最靠谱的网赌软件 & 世界报道, which also cited Old Dominion as one of the nation's Top Public 学校 for diversity for social mobility.
"There is a reason why Old Dominion continues to rise in these regional, national and even international rankings," said President John R. 布罗德里克. "These measurements reflect the dedicated efforts of our faculty, staff and administrators, who work very hard to provide our students with world-class and cutting-edge education in an environment well-known for its diversity and inclusivity. We are clearly on the move."
