Today, we look at a specific region of the country, the southeast, and talk about some amazing hidden gem colleges. Below is our list of the top 10 hidden gem universities in the southeast. In an effort to include more schools on our website, all the schools on this list are unique from other “hidden gem” lists we have published in the last 6 months.
These schools deserve to be recognized for their strong academic programs, community engagement, and student body success.
10. Barry University (Miami Shores, FL)
9. Radford University (Radford, VA)
8. University of Alabama, Huntsville (Huntsville, AL)
7. Coastal Carolina University (Conway, SC)
6. University of West Florida (Pensacola, FL)
5. Stetson University (DeLand, FL)
4. Southern University and A&M College (Baton Rouge, LA)
3. Murray State University (Murray, KY)
2. James Madison University (Harrisonburg, VA)
1. Western Carolina University (Cullowhee, NC)
Western Carolina University is among the most selective colleges in the southeast, accepting less than 40% of applicants in some years. Located in Cullowhee, North Carolina, its location in the rural mountains offers students with a ton of outdoor extracurricular activities near the Great Smoky and Blue Ridge mountain ranges. The university is an NC Promise school. Enacted in the Fall of 2018 by the State of North Carolina, the NC Promise program provides all undergraduate students with reduced student tuition costs. Because of this unique initiative, in combination with Western Carolina University’s excellent programs, enrollment has increased over the last several years at this hidden gem university. Considering the quality of education with its revolutionary promise program, Western Carolina is perhaps the best value in higher education today.
