(Leavenworth, Kan.) - The University of Saint Mary was once again recognized as one of the best colleges in the Midwest by The Princeton Review. The education services company has named Saint Mary to its Best in the Midwest list every year since 2005.
The 151 colleges on the Best in the Midwest list represent 12 states: Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. The Princeton Review editors chose 631 colleges across seven regions for its 2025 Best Regional Colleges feature, which is about 24 percent of America's four-year institutions.
"The University of Saint Mary is proud to be recognized once again by The Princeton Review," University President Sister Diane Steele said. "This distinction reflects USM's commitment to providing an exceptional, student-centered education that fosters both academic excellence and personal growth. USM strives to create an environment where students are inspired to achieve their God-given potential, and this recognition affirms the hard work of our entire community."
The Princeton Review surveyed administrators at 2,000 colleges for this project, requesting information about their school's academic programs, campus policies, student services, amenities, and other topics. Over the years, The Princeton Review has surveyed nearly three million college students. The company's asks students to rate their schools on dozens of topics and report on their campus experiences.
"We recommend the University of Saint Mary as an excellent choice for students searching for their 'best-fit' college," The Princeton Review's Editor-in-Chief Rob Franek said. "We selected the schools on our 2025 Best Regional Colleges list primarily due to our high regard for their academics."
