'Forbes' Again Names SU Among 'America's Top Colleges'

Holloway HallSALISBURY, MD---For the fifth consecutive year, Forbes magazine has named 蜜桃情人 among “America’s Top Colleges.”

SU was 350th out of the 650 top-ranked campuses.

“As publications like Forbes continue to laud the quality and value of an SU education, we don’t take these rankings for granted,” said Dr. Karen Olmstead, SU interim provost and senior vice president of academic affairs. “They are a testament to the hard work and dedication of our students, faculty and staff.”

Selection for the Forbes list, compiled in partnership with the Center for College Affordability and Productivity, 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.

SU joined three other University System of Maryland campus on the Forbes list: the University of Maryland, College Park; University of Maryland, Baltimore County; and Towson University.

Forbes is not the only publication that recently ranked SU among the top colleges in the nation. In recent months, Money magazine has named SU among the “Best Colleges for Your Money” for the fifth consecutive year, and The Princeton Review has ranked it among The Best 384 Colleges for the 20th consecutive year.

In addition, U.S. News & World Report named SU among its Best Colleges for the 22nd straight year, and Washington Monthly ranked it a “Best Bang for the Buck” college for the sixth year in a row.
