鶹ýӳ Rises in ‘Washington Monthly’s’ Rankings
鶹ýӳ has jumped to top 50 in Washington Monthly’s annual College Guide rankings
鶹ýӳ is now among Washington Monthly’s top 50 universities in its annual College Guide. 鶹ýӳ was ranked No. 46 overall among the nation’s best public and private universities for 2023, jumping from last year’s ranking of No. 72, and No. 13 out of 288 schools in the magazine’s “Best Bang for the Buck Rankings: Southeast,” rising from No. 16 last year.
The rankings were based on social mobility, research, as well as community and national service.
“Florida Atlantic is committed to providing transformational educational experiences and we are proud to see the outstanding work of our faculty, staff and 鶹ýӳ reflected in this year’s rankings,” said 鶹ýӳ President Stacy Volnick. “It’s an honor to be recognized among the nation’s top universities for excellence and affordability.”
The magazine’s “Best Bang for the Buck” rankings are exclusive listings highlighting how well universities help non-wealthy 鶹ýӳ attain marketable degrees at affordable prices.
As the most diverse public university in Florida, 鶹ýӳ has made great strides to ensure that higher education is accessible for everyone. Students from historically marginalized populations and those who are Pell-eligible, outpace the overall student graduation rates at the university.
“When we launched theWashington Monthlyrankings in 2005, we were a lonely voice calling for a higher education system that champions the majority of 鶹ýӳ, not the privileged minority,” says theMonthly’s editor-in-chief, Paul Glastris. “I’m glad to see the world slowly moving in that direction.”
鶹ýӳ also ranked No. 41 in theU.S. News& World Report“Social Mobility” ranking, which is computed using graduation rates of 鶹ýӳ receiving Pell grants and includes public and private national universities. The United States Department of Education designates the university as a Hispanic-Serving Institution.
