JAMES Magazine ranks Piedmont among top 3 colleges in state, interviews President Mellichamp

JAMES Magazine has ranked Piedmont University as one of the top three colleges in Georgia.

Every year, JAMES Magazine releases its list of Georgia’s top colleges and universities. According to JAMES, the rankings are based on statistics from outside rating services and detailed reports from the University System of Georgia. 

Piedmont, which became a university in April 2021, ranks No. 3 on James’ list of colleges that focus on undergraduate education and offer limited graduate programs. Only Berry College and Spelman College were ranked higher.

JAMES’ July/August edition also includes an extensive interview with Piedmont President James F. Mellichamp, who discusses his vision for the institution, its recent rebranding, and its commitment to providing students with a personalized, high-quality educational experience at a reasonable cost.

More information about the rankings and Dr. Mellichamp’s interview can be found in JAMES’ July/August edition.
