Money Magazine named Lincoln a ''Best College'' in its national rankings using unique measures: educational quality, affordability and alumni success.
Though Lincoln dates back to the 1860s and we boast alumni who have significantly impacted American history and culture, we are defined by more than just our history. Today, we are consistently honored as one of the country's best HBCUs, and in the top 50 schools nationwide for social mobility. Enroll at Lincoln, and you'll join students from all over the world on our beautiful Pennsylvania campus, where you'll be prepared to make an impact on your community and country that does the Lincoln legacy proud.
There's more to school than just classes, and at Lincoln, you'll be able to build friendships and connections that will last a lifetime. Our campus is small but tight-knit, energized by a vibrant social life, a robust Greek culture, and a one-of-a-kind Homecoming celebration. We are also home to an NCAA Division II athletics program (go Lions!) with 11 varsity sports teams and cheerleading, so you'll be able to take the lead on and off the field.
The athletics program is a NCAA Division II member institution and sponsors 11 varsity sports that compete in the CIAA (Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association) as well as cheerleading.
When I come to campus and see the fire in the eyes of students and their eagerness to become all they can be, I'm reminded of myself and how fortunate I am to be part of Lincoln University.
