[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What makes so many on DCUM upset about this ranking, and the WSJ's ranking for that matter, is that many of top ranked schools are accessible. They don't require top grades, test scores, attendance at private feeder schools, or parents singularly focused on achieving admission to an elite college as the ultimate goal. Apparently this ranking values schools that successfully prepare students for careers while remaining open to a broader range of applicants.[/quote] Are people not actually looking at the list? 16 of the top 20 are highly rejective schools with sub 10% acceptances. Only Bentley is really accessible…as UVA is very selective and even Babson only has a 20% acceptance rate while Lehigh is a bit higher acceptance rate (those are the four that aren’t crazy selective). Again, this list is very similar to WSJ that had Bentley, Lehigh and Babson highly rated.[/quote]
