U.S. News College Rankings Out Now

U.S. News’s annual college rankings are out and available on the web – methodology and FAQ are here. All kinds of breakdowns and tabulations are available, as well as a Get Into College guide and the all-important Financial Aid section – it’s a very valuable resource.

My alma mater Wittenberg University, in Springfield, OH, did well, ranking 105 among liberal arts schools. Its profile is here.

My daughter goes to the University of Cincinnati and they don’t fare as well, coming in under the “Third Tier” rankings of major universities.

My son began his senior year of high school yesterday and he is looking at UC (at his sister’s insistence), Wittenberg, and Miami University (of Ohio), which comes in at a very impressive 62 among major universities.

We are going to be feeling a serious financial pinch for the next five years – I hope this Blogcritics thing flipping pans out.
