Princeton Review includes Grove City in Best Colleges Guide

GROVE CITY, Pennsylvania – The Princeton Review has once again named Grove City College to its “The Best 390 Colleges” guide for 2025.

Schools selected for inclusion in the guide represent the top 15% of colleges and universities in the country based on a set of student-focused criteria, including cost, value, academic achievement and quality of life, as evaluated by the Princeton Review.

“It is important for students to know that Grove City College meets the standards for quality and value. This recognition by The Princeton Review demonstrates that it not only meets the standards, but stands out,” said Paul J. McNulty, president of Grove City College. “Our unique, Christ-centered living and learning experience equips students with the knowledge, skills and wisdom to succeed and serve the common good.”

The Princeton Review’s student guide, which regularly recognizes Grove City College, also lists the college as a top choice for prospective students and as one of the best colleges in the Mid-Atlantic region.

“At Grove City College, students freely pursue truth, grow in a deep-rooted community, and learn to confidently help others,” said Lee Wishing, the college’s vice president for student recruitment and director of marketing. “The Princeton Review seal of approval is a valuable indicator of Grove City College’s status for prospective students and their families.”

Rob Franek, editor in chief of The Princeton Review and author of the guide, said the colleges featured are “really a select group.” The educational services and test prep company relies on empirical data and student survey responses to select the colleges featured – but not ranked – in the annual guide.
