Westminster College was ranked 18th on Great College Deals’ list of “Best Deals: Small Colleges for Social Types.”

Great College Deals’ mission is “to provide high schoolers and other prospective college students with information about top-ranked universities.” The rankings on this list were determined by “the presence of diverse student-run social organizations, an active Greek life opportunity, lively ongoing campus festivities, generous financial aid packages, and any additional distinctions that add value to the highly social student.”

Westminster made the list because of the “family-like” fraternities and sororities, fundraising for charities, the on-campus radio and television stations, the student-run newspaper publications, and various other opportunities for students.

“To be included with higher education institutions both private and public, as well as institutions of significant size and research-based focus, speaks volumes about the quality of education being offered,” said Dr. Thomas Stein, vice president for enrollment and marketing.
