On Monday, U.S. News & World Report released its annual ranking of the best colleges and universities in America — and once again, Princeton landed the top spot. It was followed by Harvard, Columbia, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Yale.
Princeton scored highly on a number of measures, including a student-faculty ratio of just 5-to-1, a high graduation rate of 98%, and a high alumni giving rate of 59%. But it also comes with a high sticker price: upwards of $73,450 a year, which could — if you graduate in the expected four years — hit over $293,000 total. .
The average SAT/Acceptance rate for the top 5 in this list is 1440/19.6%. I would contend that a student that can get in here (especially out of state) would get scholarship $ from an excellent private school.
The ‘best’ depends more on what you plan to major in.
The best public Socialist indoctrination schools. Nice
We’re number 5! We’re number 5! Yale
