List Of Top 25 LGBTQ-Friendly Colleges And Universities In The United States For 2015

The University of Massachusetts has been named as one of the top 25 LGBTQ-friendly Colleges and Universities in the United States for 2015 by Campus Pride, a nonprofit support and advocacy network for students who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning (LGBTQ).

Also on the list of 25 top colleges and universities working to create an inclusive campus climate for LGBTQ students is Princeton, Ohio State, Cornell, Rutgers university, University of Oregon, and the university of Maine at Machias.

The top 25 LGBTQ-inclusive colleges and universities list, 2015, is based on responses to the Campus Pride Index, a national benchmarking tool that self-assesses LGBTQ-friendly policies, programs and practices. The list recognizes the “Best of the Best” LGBTQ friendly higher education institutions in the United States. The listing this year includes public and private colleges with student enrollment from 1,600 to more than 50,000.

In order to be in the Top 25 LGBTQ-Friendly Colleges and Universities in the United States listing, an institution had to score the highest percentages in a long list of LGBT-friendly categories ranging from inclusion, institutional commitment, student and academic life, campus safety, LGBT health, and LGBT recruitment.
