The Washington Monthly released its national rankings on Monday, with Elmira College ranked at #11 out of 223 Best Bachelor’s Colleges in the nation.
Washington Monthy’s rankings specifically look at how well colleges recruit and graduate students of modest means, produce the scholarship and scholars that drive economic growth and human flourishing, and encourage students to be active citizens and serve their country.
According to the Washington Monthly website, “ We rank liberal arts colleges—four-year institutions that award almost exclusively bachelor’s degrees and that focus on arts and sciences rather than professional programs—based on their contribution to the public good in three broad categories: social mobility, research, and promoting public service.”
Helping EC perform well in the Washington Monthly’s rankings is a strong focus on community engagement and internship experiences. Undergraduate students are required to complete a set amount of community engagement hours and 97% of students complete at least one internship, both of which help build essential skills for career success. EC also places a high priority on research opportunities, with many faculty working closely with students on projects, often co-authoring research papers and co-presenting at national conferences.
Elmira College also launched its Soaring Eagles Take Flight initiative in 2023. In this program, EC covers out-of-pocket costs for undergraduate tuition and mandatory fees for eligible incoming undergraduate New York State students.
“These rankings speak directly to the four-year cost and value of an Elmira College degree,” said Dennis Kelly, Vice President of Enrollment Management at Elmira College. “The professional pathways that EC has developed for students, combined with hands-on learning experiences, give them opportunities for graduate and career advancement, all while maintaining one of the most affordable undergraduate tuition prices of any four-year private college or university in the region.”
