For the seventh year in a row, UMass Amherst leads the nation for the best food on campus, according to The Princeton Review, which ranks the top 25 universities and colleges in 50 different categories for 2024.

The school said with the largest collegiate dining program in the country, UMass Dining emphasizes locally sourced foods while delivering healthy, sustainable, delicious, diverse, and authentic culinary experiences to help build community through food.
