US News College Ranking

[GeauxSioux]

US News is out with their college rankings. UND is now listed as a Tier I National University. It wasn't too many years ago that UND was Tier III. I don't know if US News changed their criteria or what.

UND is ranked #159 in the Tier I catergory.

I don't think the endowment information is accurate.

2012 Rankings, for what they are worth, have UND at #164, tied with Florida Institute of Technology, San Diego State, University of Hawaii, University of Louisville and West Virginia.

That sucks, I was hoping we would move closer to the top 100 this time around. NDSU moved up quite a few spots since the last rankings.

Skimming through it a bit, it is based on 2010 data, so you may have to wait a couple of years to see movement up. UND's place relative to other schools appears to be the same. UND was tied with Hawaii last year and this year and right behind Idaho both years.
