I have seen Bing go from strength to strength in recent years. Kudos to Harvey Stenger, the outgoing president. I hope Anne D’Alleva continues Bing’s trajectory!

I’ve always thought - back to when I was at Syracuse in the 80s - that Bing was strong. I guess I never thought about it in terms of “public schools”.
But that’s a great list of all well known names they are listed with.
It’s also interesting what they write - so perhaps their continued growth will be based on their affordability.
It will be interesting to see what # they rank publicly on US News: Stony is the top SUNY at 26 publicly but the top 25 is mostly similar to Forbes.
No matter what, Bing is a well respected school.

Binghamton has been increasing in popularity very noticeably over the last 5 years, particularly as they have been fairly aggressive with recruiting OOS students. It has appeared prominently in a number of recent ranking lists.
There’s this list from 2021: https://talk.collegeconfidential.com/t/bing-tops-list-of-public-ivies
And this one from last year: Binghamton Ranks #6 in P'ton Review Best Value
I will add this one to my original post: Bing went up 47 spots in Best Value as per USNWR.
Anecdotally, I feel like it is true Binghamton is getting more attention recently from OOS students in my circles, and it is well-deserved in my opinion.
I was born and raised in NYC and moved to GA many many years ago. I’ve always known about Bing because of my family ties who still live in the tri-state area. Where I live , SEC reigns and I’ve never bought into it. So I encouraged my scholar to apply and everyone in her school is like Bing?? I’m like whatever, IYKYK…
