Many of the US News rankings that bluesky used as a source are incorrect. Princeton is not #16 in US News, it is ranked much higher.

Some of you do not read/ lack comprehension skills. They are using the US news global ranking not the US ranking. Princeton is ranked 16 there.

No, this ranking is mixing graduate schools with undergraduate schools. Why else would UC-San Francisco be included in the rankings ?

Exactly. How can you have an aggregate ranking system that includes both undergraduate and schools that have no undergraduate at all? (e.g., UCSF) I mean these are all highly regarded schools, but the quote ranking” aspect of it is silly.

Sure but graduate schools are important to an institution's global prestige. And I never said I was talking about undergrad, How do you rank undergrads on a global scale?

In short, garbage in, garbage out. You do not know what you are doing.

You must be upset about where your school landed because I didn't do anything but post a link and its contents. That's nothing to be mad at. Some people will find the info on grad prowess useful if you don't keep scrolling.

The bluesky website lists the source rankings for each school. US news ranking of Northwestern University for 2022/2023 is #10 in a tie with JHU, not #24.

US news global ranking not USA ranking.

UVA didn't make it.

Erroneous data regarding Northwestern University.

The bluesky website lists the source rankings for each school. US news ranking of Northwestern University for 2022/2023 is #10 in a tie with JHU, not #24.

It seems like the biggest increase is Emory with +9, and the biggest decrease is Rice with -8.

https://bluesky-thinking.com/bluesky-ranking-of-university-rankings-2022-23-north-america/
The ranking is an aggregate of Times, QS, US news, and ARWU. From the site "Harvard is the only member of the fabled Ivy League schools to make the top 5...University of Southern California, Emory University and Vanderbilt University have also made significant advances.
Among those that have lost ground since 2018, Duke University is down 5 places to #20 compared to other US and Canadian schools, as are the University of Wisconsin-Madison at #27. Ohio State, Purdue University and Rice University saw the biggest falls of 8 places, followed by the University of Colorado – Boulder down 6 places."
