Cornell University’s Ranking Over Time

Colleges & Universities Cornell University
1

According to USNews, Cornell is now the 17th best college in the US, which is down quite a bit from what it was in the past.

Growing up, Cornell was always considered a top 10 school. What on earth happened? Is Cornell projected to continue to trend downward? I am a little disappointed in the administration of my alma mater to be completely honest…

I wouldn’t be concerned if I were you. USNews uses different criteria now (e.g. pell grant recipients) etc.

Forbes lists Cornell at #11 and Niche #7 as the best colleges in America.

There is no material difference between 10 and 17. Why do you even care?
