How to Read These Rankings

Liberal Arts Colleges: Covers U.S. liberal arts colleges devoted primarily to undergraduate education, using a similar factor mix to the National Universities ranking (graduation and retention, faculty resources, reputation) but no research-volume measures. These colleges are small, with small classes and teaching-focused faculty — a good fit for students who value discussion-based learning and a broad undergraduate education.

Graduate program rankings: Ranks schools field by field (business, engineering, law, medicine, education, and their specialties), mainly on reputation surveys of deans and professionals in each discipline, plus employment outcomes and research indicators for some fields; not every field is updated every year. It shows how a specific program is regarded within its profession — most useful once you have a clear field in mind for graduate study.

Rank data is compiled from publicly released U.S. News ranking snapshots, for school-selection reference only; all rights remain with U.S. News & World Report.
