LOL just like every other elite top 20. It's not going anywhere below where it is. It hasn't for decades. I know that triggers you lol.

Uh no. Many of them like UVA have already dropped it. And while we are on the topic of Notre Dame let’s discuss it’s abysmal 3.3% black student population (and don’t try comparing it to the UV schools -we stomped you on that last time)

Thoughts about W&M dropping?

Are you STILL hung up on this?? It's the night before the release date - they probably just decided to go with it on a Sunday evening. Good grief.

Get a life.

Did you obsess over why your kid's acceptance/denial was sent out a few days before it WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN?? OMG!

You must be the one obsessively googling USNWR every 10 mins for the list. Sad.

DP. Are many black students even applying to ND? Kind of weird to think they would be.

This, yall really believe UCDavis is peer schools with Emory, WashU, Carnegie Mellon???
Like be for real! This is horrible, only elite schools should be on the T30. Private schools don't know which students are Pell grant students it's unfair to judge them on that. They provide great financial aid to the Pell grant students they do have yet don't get rewarded for that.

Agree with this.
And Look at the instate stats for this school.

+1. It’s why publics in other states don’t rank as high with USNWR but it’s nothing that the schools can do anything about - punish them for being in Econ healthier states)

It literally dropped 2 spots to 20, it can easily drop another next year.

Basically takes a 3.9 GPA to get into UC Davis these days. Attracts the same caliber as Emory, WashU and CMU so yes, it isn’t ridiculous to think it is a peer school. Your info about Davis is likely outdated.

A 3.9 weighted is not the same as a 3.9 unweighted. Also those 3 schools sat scores are 1500+.

Doubt it means anything significant. So many top privates outside of the Ivies dropped

Really? There’s an ENTIRE wiki on black Catholicism!

how do I see how things moved?

[Anonymous]

The more the rankings weight social mobility over things like class size (which was eliminated!) and entering student stats (measure of the strength of the peer group), the less relevant they are as a way to assess the quality of education or experience a student will have, which is what people look to these rankings for. I find the new methodology to be disappointing.

I can see ND falling out of the top 20 next year.

I think this makes sense. Schools like Florida and the UC schools do well at graduating kids of different means throughout their state. I've always thought some schools like Tulane and Northeastern to be overhyped and overpriced. My best friend's daughter goes to Case Western and all her into classes have a few hundred people in them. At that point. why go there over William & Mary, VT, or Maryland? I do wonder if some privates will have trouble with their yield now. And some of the drops are wild - most Washington University and Tufts grads I know are the kind of people to care about rankings so I'm sure the drop will be hard for them.
