The University of Mobile, Samford University and Judson College have been named some of “America’s Best Christian Colleges.”
The schools are three of only 92 colleges and universities nationwide to receive the 2014–2015 designation.
The results of the 24th Annual National College Survey, conducted by Institutional Research & Evaluation, Inc. (IR&E), show that 402 Christian institutions of higher education were selected for evaluation.
“The IR&E identifies the American colleges and universities providing students the highest quality education in a Christian environment,” said Lewis T. Lindsey Jr., president of the IR&E.
To be considered for the designation “America’s Best Christian Colleges,” an institution must be an accredited, four-year college or university that offers bachelor degrees. It also must offer full residential facilities including residence halls and dining services. The fall 2013 freshman class must have had a high school GPA or SAT/ACT score equal to or above the national average for all freshmen entering higher education Christian institutions. The school must be affiliated with a recognized Christian denomination or interdenominational institution that incorporates Christian principles and beliefs into its curriculum.
The annual survey was conducted between April 1 and July 31, 2013.
