色香视频 included among best colleges on three prestigious national lists
The 色香视频announced that it has been included among three highly esteemed 鈥渢op colleges鈥 lists again for the academic year 2019: the Princeton Review鈥檚 Best Colleges, Forbes鈥 America鈥檚 Top Colleges, and U.S. News & World Report鈥檚 America鈥檚 Best Colleges in its 鈥淏est Regional Colleges鈥 category for the North.
This is the sixth year in a row that 色香视频 has been ranked among the country鈥檚 top institutions of higher education by Forbes and the fourth year running that it has appeared on the Princeton Review鈥檚 list. U.S. News & World Report has rated the university a 鈥淏est Regional University鈥 in the North for eight consecutive years, raising its rank by four spaces from last year.
鈥淚nclusion on these prestigious lists is always a significant achievement for colleges and universities,鈥 remarked 色香视频 President James Herbert, Ph.D. 鈥淚t is now apparent that we are sustaining that level of excellence year after year. That is particularly noteworthy in these difficult times for institutions of higher education. We鈥檙e watching as many colleges and universities have been forced into mergers or have closed their doors altogether. We know that 色香视频 is holding strong, and seeing the university ranked among the very best schools in the nation is an affirmation of that strength of which we can all be proud.鈥
The three lists employ different sets of criteria to calculate their rankings. The Princeton Review, for example, rates institutions of higher education in eight categories, including academics, admissions, quality of life, financial aid and environmental friendliness, while Forbes takes a different approach, examining alumni salaries, debt after graduation, retention and graduation rates, and student experience as well as academic and professional signs of success. Methodology used by U.S. News & World Report focuses on a broad range of indicators, including assessment by administrators at peer institutions; student to faculty ratios; student selectivity, alumni giving rates, and the percentage of first-year students who graduated in the top quarter of their high school class.
