[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread is from 2023. As you can see, the the number of applications to the private universities downgraded in the 2024 rankings were not at all affected. in fact, the number of applications rose. So you have one data point that the US news ranking did not matter. It could be because nobody believed a methodology that moved a state school 50 points up in one year. Fast forward to the 2025 rankings, the methodology changed slightly, and the ordinal ranking has again shifted. Some of the privates recovered and the state schools declined. So, the lesson here is to trust your own judgment, the well established schools no matter their ranking will do well. [/quote] Give it time.[/quote]
