Among US universities: ( [b]methodology superior to USnews)
[/b]
Crème de le crème: MIT , Harvard, Stanford,Caltech, Uchicago, UPenn, Cornell

Tier 1.5: UCB, Johns Hopkins,Yale, Princeton

Tier 2: Columbia, Northwestern, Umich,UCLA

Tier 3: Duke, CMU ( ex CS), nYU, Brown//

Understandably Dartmouth/Vanderbit/Washu ranks are too low to get recognition

The methodology is not superior to US News as QS rankings are focused on graduate schools and research citations, not on undergraduate schools.[/quote]

But they are rankings of universities, not of undergrad programs.[/quote]
A horse by any other name; they are rankings of graduate universities, but not of individual graduate departments. They are worthless.[/quote]

Good thing QS has subject rankings too.

A university is more than its undergrad program. I’m not sure what else there is to say.[/quote]

But it isn’t, especially for undergraduate education which is what DCUM discussions are typically focused on. And this is why there are probably 15-20 SLACs which are superior to any of these schools for undergraduate education outside of engineering and CS. I’m not sure what else there is to say.[/quote]

“A university isn’t more than its undergrad program” is the type of neurotic and myopic take I expect from this place.[/quote]
