The Princeton Review has placed Long Island University’s Post campus on its Best of the Northeast list of colleges for the first time.

According to The Princeton Review, the colleges on its lists are those “that we consider academically outstanding and well worth consideration in your college search.”

“LIU Post is proud to be rated by Princeton Review as one of the best universities in the Northeast,” LIU President Kimberly R. Cline said. “This is an important milestone on the continued upward trajectory of our university. LIU Post’s distinguished faculty offers students a world-class education with a focus on experiential learning that prepares them for success.”

The Princeton Review, which reviews and ranks colleges and universities nationwide and internationally, makes its selections based on anonymous surveys of college students.

LIU Post students surveyed said it is a school brimming with “opportunities to further your educational experience.” Academically, undergrads benefit from “personalized attention” and “individualized instruction” as well as a “wide range” of courses.

Students surveyed also describe the student body as “hardworking, helpful, intelligent, [and] creative.” They also tend to be “very friendly” and are always looking “to get involved on campus.”

“Walking through campus, you constantly see familiar faces, and there is always someone willing to talk to you,” an anonymous student said in the site’s survey. “It [is] effortless to spark a conversation with someone on the Starbucks line about an upcoming event.”

The Princeton Review has ranked Post’s College of Management as one of the Best Business Schools for 15 years in the Northeast and in the country.
