BAR HARBOR – Princeton Review’s annual “Best 366 Colleges Rankings” designated College of the Atlantic as offering an outstanding undergraduate education and being one of the nation’s “best value schools.”

The annual guidebook ranked COA as No. 10 in the category of “Students Happy with Financial Aid,” and in the top 20 in other categories, such as having accessible professors.

Only about 15 percent of the four-year colleges in the United States and two Canadian colleges were chosen for the book, which offers two-page profiles of the schools and student survey-based ranking lists.
