Our Research
This list features some of the best brick-and-mortar colleges in Florida. Each school featured is a nonprofit, accredited institution — either public or private — with a high standard of academic quality. We included liberal arts colleges and research universities as well as small, midsize, and large institutions. Next, we compared this comprehensive list to a list of aggregated college rankings from reputable publications, such as U.S. News & World Report, to simplify a student’s college search. We pored through these rankings so students don’t have to.
The colleges on our list are accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) — this organization examines the objectives, quality, and overall effectiveness of higher education programs in the southern United States.
We evaluated each school on tuition costs, admission standards, retention and graduation rates, faculty, and reputation as well as the resources and services provided for on-campus students. Then, we used this information to calculate the Intelligent Score on a scale of 0 to 100. Read more about our ranking methodology.

With over 300 million dollars in total research spending, Florida State University bills itself as a research-intensive university. Their resume includes everything from investigating new ways of creating a film to understanding oil spills and their environmental impact. They're particularly known for their criminal justice and film degrees. Less known are delightful traditions, such as students getting dunked in the Westcott Fountain after turning 21. They also have a lot of opportunities to join and participate in Greek life, and the FSU football team is known as the Seminoles. It's a great option for students looking to stay local, as roughly 85% of the student body comprises Florida residents.
