DECIDING WHERE TO APPLY is tough. But the U.S. News & World Report Best Colleges rankings, now in their 36th year, can help. Our latest edition assesses 1,452 U.S. bachelor's degree-granting institutions on 17 measures of academic quality. The comparisons are useful for crafting a shortlist of institutions to examine more closely and may also highlight new options.
To further explore the rankings and data, U.S. News' college profile pages benchmark each school's relative performance across different ranking indicators and include many of the latest statistics used in the calculations – such as the student-faculty ratio and the average federal loan debt of graduates. We also list information schools reported directly to U.S. News on their application requirements, tuition and financial aid policies, student body demographics, and campus life. The college's individual profile pages have post-graduate earning data by undergraduate focus and user ratings and reviews submitted by alumni.

Looks like LA Tech took quite a stumble there. Weren't they in "Tier 1" for a while?

Hey, why did you leave Northwestern off the list? They were tied for #9 with CIT and Johns Hopkins.

We're #153! We're #153!

Curious as to how much Marxist propaganda weighs into the rankings. (I’m going to guess pretty heavily.)

USNWR is just out of control at this point
Alabama blatantly manipulated the shite out of the system for a decade (good for them, not criticizing), and now they're punishing Alabama bombing them 50 spots such that they're tied with Samford and sitting a cool 80 spots behind...Howard.
Now FSU is doing it.
A high school with "UC" in front of it would get a top 50 ranking.

Aren't they ditching the SAT requirement now? Wonder how that will affect their ranking. US News & Cuckoldry Report will probably finagle some "social credit" type score in there for them.

The University of California system is always ridiculously overrated in this ranking methodology. UC Irvine, Santa Barbara, San Diego, and Davis all being ranked 30-39 is a joke and hurts the credibility of the entire list.

Eta. Read that wrong. They meant undergraduate teaching, not teaching program.
