Excellent Eduction
- I am a '98 UPS alum and couldn't have asked for a better undergrad experience. I worked my tail off and played hard too. Now that I have finished two masters degrees in international economics and international finance from a top 5 graduate institution, I realize just how strong the education at UPS really was. The professors are extremely supportive and encourage academic and intellectual exploration. The standards at UPS will support ANY student in their educational and intellectual pursuits. Undoubtedly, if UPS was in New England, the school would receive much more press and be far more prestigious - but then we would have to give up the amazing beauty and unique offerings of the Pacific NW.

A Great Experience at Puget Sound
- I am a recent graduate and loved my experience at Puget Sound. It has something to offer for all students seeking an education in a focused and tight knit community. The liberal arts focus allows students to have a broad base of knowledge upon graduation, and the faculty take personal interest in your long term success.

From a Puget Sound Alum
- As an alum (2001), I can’t say enough about UPS. I had a great 4 years there and look back on them very fondly. With my financial aid, it was as affordable as a state school for me and gave me a MUCH better education that allowed me to explore many different interests. Happy to see UPS get its rightful place in the spotlight. I highly recommend it for students who expect more from their educational experience than auditorium lecture halls.

Nice Students at Puget Sound
- Great school. What makes it stand apart is the style of the kids – they are nice, serious about their studies, and on the responsible side. Not too wild or spoiled. It’s a really mellow, excellent place to go to school.

University of Puget Sound Alumni
- Disclosure: I am involved at University of Puget Sound. Nonetheless, I hear from many students and alumni, and it’s clear from those I speak to that they not only enjoy the experience, but that what they learn takes them a long way in the world – in many respects.
