What happened to Wake Forest? I thought their preview said it was in the top 25 but I don't see it on the list.

See my post above

Is it me or there weren't any changes for the LACs at all? Unless it hasn't been updated yet online.

Wow, that is a excellent surprise it came out 3 hours early.

Columbia University actually jumped to 4th place. Wow. Congrats to Columbia University.

Berkeley went down to number 22, from 21 last year.

I can't believe UPenn actually managed to beat MIT and Caltech this year.

Plus, as always, Harvard is #1

Boston College jumped ahead of NYU wow.

House of London

yeah Cornell got shafted.

nerdycris

I don't know that much about all these schools, but there are some changes I never saw coming. I mean, not that rankings make that much of a difference to me. But yup..a couple surprises!

^bc above nyu was a shocker!

Dartmouth is still #1 for undergraduate teaching. I'm sure they're very happy about that.

I'm not very familiar with the methodology of USNWR -- why does UPenn always do so well?

kwu

MWAHAHA, Georgetown!

Tsk, poor CMU.

Columbia University going to 4th spot was the most surprising to me.

WOOHOO.

Columbia Uni is my dream uni <.<

TXhorn

Looks like Bates>Colby now and Harvey mudd fell

100-98: Harvard, Princeton, Yale
Big gap
93-90: Stanford, UPenn, Caltech, MIT, Dartmouth, Duke, UChicago

Interesting. If it can be claimed that the quality of undergraduate at Harvard, Yale, and Princeton is nonexistent or negligible, it can be claimed that the quality of education at Stanford, UPenn, Caltech, MIT, Dartmouth, Duke, and UChicago are negligible.
