Colgate among top 100?

Colgate has a really nice campus and good dorms, but I was wondering if it was among the nation's top 100 or so universities according to us news. I tried searching and couldn't find colgate among the top 100, so is it considered third tier? If so, does it mean all those 100+ univerisites are better than colgate??

One more question, does anyone know the statistics ( % accepted) for transfer students after 1 or two years of undergraduate?

Thank you...

Colgate is in the Liberal Arts Colleges section

USN&WR lists Colgate in the Liberal Arts Colleges section rather than National Universities, even though the school name ends in university rather than college, where Colgate ranked #15 in the last survey. It does the same for Wesleyan & Bucknell because all three have very small masters programs. At Colgate, I know it's less than 10 students.

This is what you're looking for. Colgate is under top liberal arts colleges (not universities, even though it is a "liberal arts university" according to them) as 15 out of 104. =)
