"A attentive teacher" is the first reaction of many students studying to school academics. Thanks to the careful teaching of teachers, the school's undergraduate ranking has always been ranked among the top ten in the United States, and innovation ranking has also topped the list.
Because there are no places for entertainment around the school, entertainment activities are not very rich, but it also indirectly shows that this is a good place to study quietly. There are many students who graduate from here every year and go to work in a large factory. In addition, UMBCh is also sponsored by NASA for a long time!
Top7 William and Mary College
William and Mary College is a top institution known as the "American alma mater". Although the name contains the word "college", William and Mary College is indeed a real public university. William and Mary pay great attention to undergraduate education, and pay more attention to cultivating comprehensive talents. Since the school pays more attention to undergraduate education, it is not well-known in China.
When doing school research, there are two numbers that appeal to me very much: 99% of the courses are taught by professors themselves, and 86% of the classes contain 40 or less students.
In addition to the small-class education that is very common in other schools on the list, William and Mary College also pays great attention to cultivating students' international vision. About 58% of undergraduates have experience in exchange and learning in other countries. William and Mary have exchange programs with 15 universities around the world.

The school’s more famous major is Business and Media . Food and education are also very popular at Georgia State University. The school has invested a lot of money and time to build popular majors.Although the school’s comprehensive ranking is not high, it is indeed a place where people can learn steadily. Professors are doing research seriously and students are studying seriously. Don’t completely deny it just because of a factor in the comprehensive ranking!
Top5 Boston College
Boston College’s undergraduate education is the top5 on the latest list, The most famous undergraduate education is the core course of BC, This is a world of difference from Brown University open curriculum.
not only includes regular courses such as natural sciences and social sciences, but also requires students to take theology and philosophy courses . This is closely related to BC's Jesuit Education tradition. The cultivation of core courses has also opened up more academic possibilities for students, and has also promoted the birth of many integrated disciplines.
The more famous courses include perspective and pulse. Both courses require students to take the course for one year. perspective pays more attention to reading and discussion, while pulse increases a lot of social practice and gives students more opportunities to explore society. Core courses allow students to find themselves faster, so after studying the core courses, many students choose to change majors or add majors or minors.
Top5 Dartmouth College
As a niche Ivy League , Dartmouth has always been very low-key.
In addition to the small class education and the setting of the Extreme Arts and Sciences College, Dartmouth is also known for its outdoor sports. Many times, orientation activities are going out to hike or climb. Hometimes many social activities of students are also through sports, including Frisbee and other projects.
Another point shared by the senior students is "few people and more resources" , so as long as you want to complete a research task or contact a professor, it can basically be easily implemented.
Top4 Rice University
Rice University's undergraduate education also focuses on "small but exquisite". It is called Southern Harvard . It holds a lot of activities every semester. Academic activities and parties of all sizes allow students to balance in social life and academic life.
The school is not large in scale. There are only 900 undergraduate students in a year . The school is also working hard to maintain a good teacher-student ratio so that students can truly get the attention and help of teachers.
Starting from the fall of 2021, the school has also added business majors, which is a breakthrough for the undergraduate education of rice. "The recent growth of the Jones Business School's faculty, and the university's plan to increase the number of undergraduate students makes it the right time to consider starting an undergraduate business major in Rice," said Fleming, deputy dean. "We see the possibility that Rice is working hard to provide undergraduates with more professional options.
Top3 Princeton University
Princeton seems to have lived in the ap textbooks on my desk from the very beginning, and "schools that come out of the textbooks" have also become our stereotype of it. But Princeton’s undergraduate education is truly the top 3 on the list.
Princeton first has very strong faculty and excellent teachers and students than . The school mainly focuses on small-class education, with more than 75% of the students in the class being less than 20. In a small class environment, students are also treated meticulously by teachers. In addition to school’s academic content, the school will also pay attention to providing career services for everyone.
Another major feature of Princeton undergraduate education is that it will hold some collective courses. For example, after admission, students from Mfin Program will conduct two-week Math Camp and Boots camp activities . While reviewing the basic knowledge of math and finance, they will also do some career preperation.
Princeton Highlights students' scientific research experience . Although the school knows that not all students can get scientific research opportunities before undergraduate studies, students with scientific research experience will still receive some favor from admissions officers.
Top2 Brown University
Brown University's undergraduate education has always been at the forefront. Brown University is most famous for its open curriculum (open curriculum) . There is no "compulsory" restriction for students, and they can choose their favorite courses to study and arrange their own courses. This is also one of the reasons why many students choose Brown University.
Since DIY gives undergraduates a lot of freedom, so some students have designed many "interdisciplinary" disciplines, such as Marine biology , medical ethics, Egyptian language, Brazilian research, etc. But at the same time, such course setting also requires students to be absolutely self-disciplined and planned, otherwise they will "lie down" if they are not careful.
A senior in Brown also shared his experience. In the pre-entry paperwork, he mentioned in a small detail that he was very interested in East Asia culture. A few days after receiving the recording, he actually received an invitation letter from the East Asia Center, which mentioned what kind of help the East Asia Research Center could provide him. This small detail of touched this student very much. The school can capture the needs of each student and provide corresponding tutoring and help, which also reflects Brown University's intention to undergraduate students.
Top1 Yilong University
Yilong University ranks first in undergraduate education, and actually crushed Princeton and Brown, and broke out of the list like a dark horse. The school attaches great importance to emphasizing students' hands-on ability and practical ability, and pays great attention to liberal arts education. The largest liberal arts college provides 51 majors. This university belongs to regional university, that is, regional universities, and does not participate in the comprehensive ranking. So seeing it on the undergraduate education list made many students lit up.
Although the school focuses on liberal arts education and small class education, provides more than 60 majors , which includes major fields such as business, engineering, science, humanities and social sciences, and art. Many courses are interdisciplinary courses, with a wide range of subjects.
