[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish there were a way to create your own ranking with the values that were important to you. Maybe you don't care about faculty salaries, but you do want classes under 20 students and a high percent of classes taught by PhDs. Maybe you don't care about diversity, but you do care about retention and graduation rates. I think that it's telling that the same schools constantly make the top of these lists for undergrad rankings, but the order shifts around depending on the factors weighted. As such, it's best to think in tiers or groupings rather than #1 vs #5. [/quote] I agree. Even better would be if you could enter your planned major. A STEM major’s top 10 isn’t going to look anything like a history major’s top 10. Plus, some universities have a handful of nationally-respected departments even if the school as a whole is further down the list.[/quote]
