Graphic says, Highest Ranking Ever

鶹AV rises to its highest position ever in U.S. News & World Report rankings

The 鶹AV has hit an all-time high on U.S. News & World Report’s (U.S. News) annual ranking of the best colleges in America.  In the new rankings released today, 鶹AV sits at No. 42 among all public universities and No. 97 among all universities public or private.  This marks the fourth consecutive year that 鶹AV has ranked in the top 50 public universities and the first time 鶹AV has broken into the top 100 among all universities.  

鶹AV continues to hold the distinction of being the fastest-rising university in America, as no university in the country has risen higher in the rankings over the past 10 years than 鶹AV.  In that time 鶹AV has jumped a remarkable 52 spots among public universities, from No. 94 to No. 42, and 73 spots among all universities, from No. 170 to No. 97.

"The 鶹AV is proud to achieve our highest-ever position in U.S. News & World Report’s rankings and to once again be recognized as America's fastest-rising university,” 鶹AV President Rhea Law said. “鶹AV’s standing in the rankings is a testament to the hard work and success of our faculty, staff and students, who make an impact in our communities every day. We will continue to help shape the future for our society as we pursue our goal of becoming a top-25 public university.”

The U.S. News methodology combines a host of factors, including student graduation and retention rates, class size, student debt, faculty excellence and academic reputation. 鶹AV ranks ahead of, or is tied with, six public institutions in the prestigious Association of American Universities, the top 65 research universities in North America that 鶹AV aspires to be eligible for future membership.

Reaching its highest position ever in U.S. News rankings continues a historic stretch of achievements for 鶹AV.  The university recently welcomed its largest-ever class of first-year students and received the most applications from prospective students in history, announced a record-breaking fundraising year and experienced a transformational state budget
