It's not easy to decide which college to attend when there so many options available for international students. College Factual was founded, in part, to help students make the decision as to what would be the best school for them. Our Best Colleges for Kenyan Students in Maryland ranking is part of that endeavor.

We analyzed 5 colleges and universities across Maryland to determine which were the best for Kenyan students in Maryland. Our ranking is based on several objective factors, including the school's overall quality and the total number of international students at the school. We steer clear of subjective measures since they don't give a clear picture when determining how one school compares to another.

We've also developed a number of other tools and rankings based on other factors. These other rankings highlight colleges that excel in other factors such as value or diversity as well as schools that excel in serving different groups of students such as online students or returnings adults.
