IUP has once again been honored by The Princeton Review, this time in the 2026 “Best Colleges: Region by Region” listing.
IUP was one of less than 100 colleges and universities chosen for the Mid-Atlantic region list, which covers Pennsylvania, Delaware, Washington DC, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia. Princeton Review editors selected schools considered to be “academically outstanding” to make the list.
Earlier this year, IUP made The Princeton Review’s 2026 Best Colleges guidebook, continuing a streak of over two decades of being recognized by the publication. They were recognized for “highly personalized attention and support” for their students.
