The Princeton Review has recognized The University of Toledo’s business and law colleges as among the best in the nation.

The UT College of Business and Innovation is featured in the 2014 edition of The Best 295 Business Schools and the UT College of Law is on the 2014 list of The Best 169 Law Schools.

“All of us in the College of Business and Innovation are very excited at this continuing recognition by The Princeton Review of the quality and relevance of our programs,” said Dr. Thomas Sharkey, interim dean of the college. “We like to point out that the college is increasingly ranked and recognized by national and international organizations, and this recognition by The Princeton Review further validates the quality of our faculty, the significance of our curriculum, and the excellence of our students.”

“We are pleased but not surprised,” said Daniel J. Steinbock, dean of the College of Law. “We have been on this list for as long as it has existed. Students are consistently happy with the education they receive at our law school.”

In the UT profile in The Best 295 Business Schools, The Princeton Review editors describe the school as “offering a good education at a very competitive price with convenient scheduling.” Among the topics about which students surveyed had the highest consensus were smart classrooms, solid preparation in general management, and doing business in a global economy.

In The Best 169 Law Schools, the UT profile has Princeton Review editors noting “Students speak overwhelmingly of the school’s obvious care and concern for their future.” The profile also quotes current UT law students who were surveyed by The Princeton Review. Among the student comments, “Every aspect of the school strikes the perfect balance between professionalism and personal attention.” Another student noted the faculty’s “willingness to sit and chat with students about class at any time, while connecting what we learn to real-life use.”
