Best Value, Best in North, and Best for Veterans among highlights
BURLINGTON, Vt., Sept. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Champlain College is among the 2022-2023 "Best Colleges" according to U.S. News & World Report. Now in its 38th year, the rankings evaluate more than 1,450 colleges and universities on up to 17 measures of academic quality.
Champlain earned recognition in multiple categories including Best Value Schools, Best Colleges in the North, and Best Colleges for Veterans. Champlain also placed among the Top Performers on Social Mobility, determined by a college's work to enroll and graduate disadvantaged students.
"While no individual ranking can capture the value of the Champlain experience, we are thrilled to be recognized by U.S. News and World Report year after year," said Dr. Monique Taylor, Champlain's Provost and Chief Academic Officer. "These rankings are another indicator of Champlain's strong commitment to academic innovation, career development, and investment in student success."
Champlain moved into the top 20 Best Colleges for Veterans based on participation in federal initiatives that support veterans and active-duty service members in obtaining academic degrees.
"It's particularly exciting to see Champlain recognized for our veteran and military support, which includes financial aid options, credit transfers, and career-focused fields of study relevant to members of the Armed Forces," said James Kelley, Champlain's Assistant Director of Military and Veteran Services. "These gains are a direct result of the efforts put forward by the entire Champlain community to meet the unique needs of veterans, both inside and outside the classroom."
In addition to the flexibility of online or traditional degree programs, Champlain provides veterans with tailored services including education benefits counseling, VA financial processing and enrollment certification, on campus advocates, VA Vocational Rehab and VA Regional Processing Office coordination, and assistance in completing military-specific forms and applications.
