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.

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 Your info about Davis is likely outdated.

You can always tell who's triggered by (specific) rankings by how they react. Too funny.

It will as the swell to get of legacy admissions continues.

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.

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.

What in the formula change has some publics like U Alabama falling? And CU Boulder to 105, though that may simply be a fluctuation. Too many rich kids?

Does US News think that certain publics being ranked higher will increase prestige in the eyes of employers, for the students who attend them? Merced, anyone?

Is it 3.9 Instate?

Right, Merced at 60 is so much better than CU Boulder at 105. I'm sure the out of state apps will be flowing to Merced now LOL (sarcasm)

Yes, I was expecting a huge drop due to its lack of diversity in its student body and its reliance on things like alumni giving and class size (which have been eliminated as metrics this year). Guess ND is better than we thought!

Those who complain that the list is "idiotic" and that ___ school should have been much higher.

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 said that last year. Didn’t happen

Actually it did. UNC is ranked higher than UVA now. I never commented last year about UF.
