Elon, yes, is rising.
The rest of the private schools listed are already at the top. CMU waning? On what planet? |

It is not so much that these institutions are "on the rise" - moreso that people who previously did not know of them are finding out about them, OP. |

Top Southern universities that will manage to stay open this spring - Vandy, Duke etc. No one needs Ivy on Zoom.
