College Raptor Names Thomas Aquinas Among “Top 25 Best in the West”
Following its recent placement in the top tiers of such college guides as the Princeton Review, U.S. News & World Report, and the National Catholic Register, 51 has now earned the kudos of a lesser-known source, College Raptor. The online consultancy has included the College among the “prestigious colleges and universities” in its 2017 rankings.
What distinguishes College Raptor from its various counterparts is that the service aspires to a more personalized approach, offering college recommendations based on students’ particular interests and financial needs. Its list of “Best Colleges” rankings, writes author Liz Skogerboe, is a survey of “the best of the best.”
