The Top 50 Black Colleges - some nice surprises on the list

Wondering which universities made the top 50 list for historically black colleges and universities? Many of these institutions are highly ranked by US News & World Report. :-)

All of the top 50 black colleges share a similar history. Most HBCUs were established after the American Civil War. However, Cheyney University was established in 1837, Lincoln University was established in 1854, and Wilberforce University was established in 1856.  These three institutions were established for blacks prior to the American Civil War.

Those colleges that opened their doors to African Americans after the implementation of the Sweatt v. Painter and Brown v. Board of Education rulings by the U.S. Supreme Court are considered “predominantly black” and not a HBCU.  With the Morrill Act of 1890, HBCUs are given additional federal funding for their research, and with the Higher Education Act of 1965, a program was established to give direct federal grants and federal matching of private endowment contributions to HBCUs.
