MOUNT VERNON – Cornell College has been named to the Colleges of Distinction guide for 2008-2009. Colleges of Distinction selects schools “that exhibit the four distinctions that make a college truly great: engaged students, great teaching, vibrant communities, and successful outcomes.”
The goal of Colleges of Distinction is to provide students, counselors, and parents with information about schools that excel in these key areas. Featured schools take a holistic approach to admissions, consistently excel in providing undergraduate education, and have a truly national reputation.
Cornell College has also been named one of the Colleges that Change Lives and was recently placed 21st in a Forbes’ ranking of the best national liberal arts schools in the country.
