In addition, students said the University has a "refreshingly diverse campus" and that "everyone is friendly and has a positive and welcoming attitude" toward everyone else. The survey also said students are "happy" and that the recreation facilities and library are "great."

Only about 13 percent of the 3,000 four-year colleges in the United States are profiled in the book, which is one of The Princeton Review’s most popular publications. The company chooses the colleges for the book based on data it annually collects from administrators at hundreds of colleges about their institutions’ academic offerings. The Princeton Review also considers data it gathers from its surveys of college students who rate and report on various aspects of their campus and community experiences for this project.

"We salute the University of New Haven for its outstanding academics and we are truly pleased to recommend it to prospective applicants searching for their personal ‘best-fit’ college," said Robert Franek, The Princeton Review's Editor-in-Chief and lead author of "The Best 385 Colleges."
