St. Ambrose University is celebrating another national recognition.
Money.com recently published its annual list of the best four-year universities and colleges and St. Ambrose was named “One of America’s Best Colleges” for 2024.
The magazine’s annual “Best Colleges in America” ranking evaluates institutions on more than 20 factors, including affordability, quality of education, and student outcomes such as graduation rates and success in landing meaningful careers.
“Our focus is on our students and providing them with innovative learning experiences and resources they need to become who they are meant to be,” St. Ambrose President Amy Novak said in a news release. “St. Ambrose can be surprisingly affordable and we are intentional in creating a unique environment that helps students find success here and in their future careers. That’s what being Ambrosian is all about.”
Money.com evaluated more than 2,400 universities and colleges across the country. Only about a third of those institutions made the magazine’s initial cut before the published rankings. The entire list can be found here.
The Davenport-based St. Ambrose was evaluated and chosen for its strong financial health, focus on student learning and graduation rates.
“I’d like to thank our professors, leaders, faculty and staff who work tirelessly to support our students every step of the way. We’re grateful for this honor and what it represents. We hope everyone will come visit us on campus and see what it means to be a Fighting Bee,” said Ms. Novak.
