   How it compares

   There are 2,515 universities in the United States, and this college sits at the community-college end of that system rather than the large university end. Its main draw is the combination of degree and certificate study, campus activities, and Division III sports, which makes it more practical for students who want a smaller, teaching-focused environment.
