Stockton Ranked Among ‘Best in Northeast’ by Princeton Review

The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey has been named one of the “Best in the Northeast” by The Princeton Review, an education services company widely known for its test prep programs and college and graduate school guides.

President Herman Saatkamp said, “The College is pleased to be recognized by the Princeton Review, which points out that Stockton is prized for its small class sizes, faculty-guided research projects and our commitment to being a ‘Green’ College.”

Stockton students quoted on the Princeton Review website highlight the College’s “great Marine Science program,” “outstanding Physical Therapy program” and the fact that Stockton is a “small, safe, close-knit” public school.

Stockton was one of 226 colleges chosen for the "Best in the Northeast," which covers 11 states:  New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vermont, and the District of Columbia. 

The Princeton Review also designated colleges in the Midwest, West and Southeast as best in their locales on the company’s "2014 Best Colleges: Region by Region" lists. Collectively, the 643 colleges named "regional best" constitute only about 25 percent of the nation's 2,500 four-year colleges.

Stockton has also been ranked in the top tier of Best Regional Universities in the North by U.S. News & World Report, considered one of the top independent college and university rankings in the nation.
