Saint Vincent named a College of Distinction for 2024-25
LATROBE, PA – Saint Vincent College was named a College of Distinction by Colleges of Distinction for the 2024-2025 academic year. It’s the second year in a row Saint Vincent was feted by Colleges of Distinction.
Saint Vincent earned College of Distinction status both overall and in several subcategories: Pennsylvania colleges, Catholic colleges, business programs, education programs, engineering programs and career development.
Colleges of Distinction is a hand-picked selection of top schools that are well-equipped to provide a personalized education geared toward a students’ interests. Its selection process involves thorough research and interviews with school officials. Accepted schools have proven their excellence in four overarching distinctions: engaged students, great teaching, vibrant community and successful outcomes.
“Our recognition by Colleges of Distinction is a tribute to the hard work and success of our students, alumni and faculty,” said Fr. Paul Taylor, O.S.B., C’87, S’91, president of Saint Vincent College. “Our students aim high for constant achievement—not only in the classroom, but throughout their careers and lives.”
Since 2000, Colleges of Distinction has honored schools that demonstrate a dedicated focus on the undergraduate experience.
“A college degree opens the door to many opportunities,” said Tyson Schritter, chief operating officer at Colleges of Distinction. “But a truly worthwhile education prepares students to thrive once they walk through that door. Saint Vincent’s curriculum encourages meaningful student-faculty collaboration through experiential learning that is relevant and applicable to the real world.”
