UWG recognized by Princeton Review

September 9, 2005

CARROLLTON, GA - For the third consecutive year, The Princeton Review has named the University of West Georgia as “Best Southeastern College.”

The Princeton Review published its first regional guidebook listing the best 100 to colleges and universities across the Southeast in 2004 and UWG has been included in every edition.

Dr. Beheruz N. Sethna, UWG president, said he is honored that UWG has been designated as a “Best Southeastern College” for three years in a row.

“It is a fitting tribute to the faculty, staff and students of this great university,” he noted. “I am delighted that The Princeton Review has selected UWG as one of the best southeastern colleges for the third consecutive year. Student comments show they really
appreciate the university’s very visible commitment to Educational Excellence in a Personal Environment.”

The Best Southeastern Colleges guide showcases the top schools in 10 states: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee.

The regional guide also features a search tool that gives students the “six degrees of admissions.” Admissions and financial aid information, student body demographics, geography, size and even cafeteria food are rated.
