Keep in mind, all the teams that generate school and college rankings (Niche, US News, etc.) deliberately change the formula every year so that there is movement. If there weren’t movement, you would’t go to their websites or buy their magazine.

Also, rankings obscure fit. If you want to be in a big school or do alpine skiing, Groton (last year’s top school) shouldn’t even be on your list. The rankings aren’t meaningless, but the important thing is finding the right school for each student.
