Centre College
Centre College, founded in 1819, is consistently ranked among the top liberal arts colleges in the country, and its remarkably high law school and medical school acceptance rates relative to its small size have made it one of the most respected pre-professional liberal arts colleges in the South. The college hosted the 2000 and 2012 US vice presidential debates, an unusual honor for a small liberal arts college with fewer than 1,500 students, reflecting Centre's institutional reputation and its relationships with national political and media figures built up over decades. Centre's study-abroad participation rate is among the highest of any American liberal arts college, with the vast majority of students completing at least one international study term, and the college's endowment per student ranks among the highest of any small liberal arts college in the region. The college's Danville, Kentucky campus and its combination of strong pre-professional outcomes, high study-abroad participation, and its unusual history hosting major national political debates have made Centre one of the most distinctive small liberal arts colleges in the South.
VS
Transylvania University
Transylvania University, founded in 1780, is the oldest institution of higher education west of the Allegheny Mountains, predating Kentucky's own statehood by more than a decade, and its name, derived from Latin meaning "across the woods," reflects the university's founding in what was then considered the American frontier. The university's small size, fewer than 1,000 undergraduates, and its Lexington campus give Transylvania an intimate liberal arts college experience, and the school has educated two US vice presidents and numerous US senators across its long history, reflecting its historical significance in early American higher education. Transylvania's pre-law and pre-med advising programs have built solid regional reputations, and the university's small, close-knit campus culture reflects its founding-era origins as one of the first colleges established on the American frontier beyond the original 13 colonies. The university's genuine historical seniority, predating most other colleges in the American interior by decades, combined with its small liberal arts college scale, has made Transylvania a distinctive if lesser-known choice among Kentucky's private colleges.
