   Getting in

   How it compares

   Among 2,515 universities in the United States, Colby College stands out mainly for being a liberal arts college with only three listed programmes and a small annual enrolment of about 2,400 students. That makes it more focused than large multi-faculty universities, especially for students who want a tighter programme list rather than a wide institutional menu.
