Bloomfield College Named a 2026 Top Undergrad School for Game Design
Posted in: Announcement, Homepage Announcements
According to The Princeton Review®, Bloomfield College of Montclair State University’s undergraduate program in game design studies is one of the top 50 in the nation. The education services company known for its school rankings in dozens of categories named Bloomfield College to its list, Top 50 Undergrad Schools for game Design for 2026. Bloomfield College has ranked #43 and #12 on the undergraduate Northeast list.
“The outstanding faculty and staff of our Creative Arts and Technology programs and, specifically, our Game Design program are experts in the field and provide our students with an exceptional academic experience,” says Bloomfield Dean Theodorea Regina Berry.
The Princeton Review’s top schools for game design lists are based on more than 40 data points derived from the company’s annual survey of administrators at 150+ institutions offering game design courses and/or degrees. The 50-question survey requests information in four areas: academics, faculty, technology, and career prospects.
“We highly recommend these schools to students considering a career in this exciting field,” said Rob Franek, The Princeton Review’s Editor-in-Chief. “Their programs in game design are awesome. Their faculties are outstanding. Their alumni include many of the industry’s most successful game designers, developers, and entrepreneurs, and their facilities are state-of-the-art.”
PC Gamer, The Princeton Review’s reporting partner for this project since 2013, has an eight-page feature on the lists in its May 2026 issue. The feature, titled “The Best Game Design Programs Ranked by The Princeton Review 2026,” names each of the selected schools and cites interesting stats and facts about their programs.
The Princeton Review developed this ranking category in 2010 with guidance from a national advisory board the company formed to help design the project survey and methodology. Advisory board members included administrators and faculty from respected game design programs, and professionals from some of the top video game companies.
