It’s well-known that when provided with one-on-one interaction with faculty and professors, students become more engaged in their studies and excel academically. A college’s student-to-faculty ratio is a good indicator of how much personal interaction with faculty and professors prospective students can expect. The lower the student-to-faculty ratio, the more attractive a college should become.
