Gwynedd-Mercy College Best Regional University in the 2011 edition of Best Colleges

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Plymouth Meeting, Pennsylvania, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) August 19, 2010 -- The exclusive rankings, which include more than 1,400 schools nationwide, are available at www.usnews.com/colleges , and will also be published in the September issue of U.S.News & World Report, on newsstands August 31.

Over the past two decades, the U.S. News college rankings, which group schools based on categories, has grown to be the most comprehensive research tool for students and parents considering higher education opportunities.

Among the many factors weighed in determining the rankings, the key measures of quality are: peer assessment, graduation and retention rates, faculty resources, student selectivity, financial resources and alumni giving.

Gwynedd-Mercy College’s graduation rate of 72 percent was among the highest within its tier. The College also has a reputable freshman retention rate of 78 percent. Such high rates of retention and graduation can be attributed to the college’s supportive student service and leadership programs, strong academic offerings, campus social life and the 13:1 student/faculty ratio, which gives faculty the opportunity to spend more time with individual students and help bring each student’s future into focus.
