The honor evaluates universities across five critical metrics: acceptance of transfer credits, financial aid transparency, campus climate, student life, and overall graduation rates. By meeting these benchmarks, the university continues to solidify its reputation as a destination for students transitioning from two-year programs. Brandon Rockwell, associate director of admissions, credited the achievement to the school's ongoing commitment to fostering supportive academic environments for incoming transfer populations. The university currently offers over 80 majors across its Catoctin Mountains campus and its adult education site in Frederick.
