1 min read

STEUBENVILLE -Franciscan University of Steubenville has been named the Forbes Magazine “#MyTop College” competition winner.

Earlier this summer Forbes Magazine ranked Franciscan University of Steubenville among the top 10 percent of all colleges and universities in its annual list of America’s 660 top colleges. This marked the third consecutive year Franciscan University of Steubenville made the Forbes’ list.

In the ensuing weeks Forbes held its “#MyTopCollege” competition, a crowd-sourced competition in which Forbes asks for students and alumni to share, via social media, the reasons they call their institution “MyTopCollege.”

Entries were submitted for more than 100 schools, and on Thursday Forbes officials announced Franciscan University was the “hands-down winner” of the medium-sized institutions – those with 2,000-15,000 students.
