Lots of ties in top 15. Congrats to UCLA for finally besting UCB

The ties are bullshit.

CHicago and Columbia are not on yale’s Level in the slightest.

Stanford “7th”? Lol I dislike Stanford quite a bit and thinks it has a shitty culture but Chicago and Columbia are not outpacing Stanford.

Duke way overrated.

They need to separate Wharton from the rest of penn in these rankings

Vanderbilt and Emory Overrated.

U. Washington and umd underrated big time.

Elitism embraced. Gross.

LOL

I guarantee Stanford and Yale win like 95% of the dual admits vs Columbia and Chicago.

But I guess they have to sell magazines and generate website clicks.

+1. Would Wharton win any cross-admit battles with HYPS? I doubt it. I'd love to see them isolate top business and engineering dept from the liberal arts, but I doubt universities would provide that data.

Wharton wins xadmit battles with hyps more than you think to be fair - especially due to fisher and huntsman programs.

Complete garbage. Even more so than usual.

Midwestern LACs are interesting. Carleton and Grinnell far ahead of the pack, as they should be.

This isn't a ranking of the "most prestigious" colleges. They have a whole basket of measurements, of which peer and guidance counselor rankings are only a portion.

Why is Elon considered a regional college?

Because they don't offer doctoral degrees, most likely.

Us news' classification system is based on Carnegie classification system.

These rankings are mostly focused on undergraduate education. If they included graduate school, some colleges would be ranked very differently.
