'Forbes' Again Ranks SU Among 'America's Top Colleges'
By SU Public Relations
SALISBURY, MD---For the 11th year, Forbes magazine has named ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ among “America’s Top Colleges.”
“We are thrilled that, for more than a decade, Forbes has recognized ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ among the nation’s best colleges and universities,” said President Carolyn Ringer Lepre. “This is not only a tribute to the hard work of our dedicated faculty and staff; it also provides validation for our current, past and future students that they are receiving a top-quality education.”
Ranking among the 300 top-ranked campuses, SU’s selection for the Forbes list was based on outcomes including student satisfaction, on-time graduation rates, student debt, and academic and employment success. Data was provided by the U.S. Department of Education’s College Scorecard and Payscale.com, among other sources.
According to Forbes’ methodology, more than 3,000 four-year colleges and universities nationwide initially were reviewed for the list, which was then narrowed based on those for which information was available from its data sources. From there, the list was honed even further based on undergraduate enrollment, and retention and graduation rates. Those remaining were considered for inclusion.
Forbes is not the only publication that has ranked SU among the top colleges in the nation. Earlier this week, ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ was named among The Best 390 Colleges for the 26th consecutive year by The Princeton Review and among the nation’s top master’s-level and “Best Bang for the Buck” institutions by Washington Monthly. Money magazine also ranked SU among “The Best Colleges in America.”
