[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a consolation prize for universities that aren't very good. They get to be on a "list" even if it's not the "real" list. You're not a top national university or a top LAC but you [i]are [/i]a top regional university. Yay![/quote] No, it's not that. There are excellent schools on regional lists.[/quote] Exactly, otherwise that would mean the #299 "national university" - Middle Tennessee State University - would be considered better by USNWR than a top regional university for an area of the country (e.g., Cal Poly - SLO which is ranked the #2 regional university in the West and admits only 33% of applicants).
