<p>Peer assessment ranking is by other college administrators in the U.S. Harvard has a peer assessment ranking of 4.9 our of 5.0. Not one university received a 5.0. </p>
<p>It is just a ranking system with 5.0 being the top and then the numbers descend from there. Out of the top 50 national universities the numbers go to Univ. of Miami at 3.1.</p>
<p>So much of college selection is about fit. Some students want a tiny college out in the country, others prefer an urban university with a city “vibe”. You must decide where is the best “fit” for you and the best match financially.</p>
<p>Incidentally, one of my brothers has a degree from Georgetown and also attended USC. He considers himself a Trojan through and through.</p>
