�鶹��ý�Ŷ�

�鶹��ý�Ŷ� earned second place in Washington Monthly’s annual college rankings of more than 600 master’s universities in the nation on its “” list.

The magazine ranks universities and colleges for their contributions to the public good across three broad categories: social mobility, research, and promoting public service. To be at the top of the ranking, colleges must excel across the full breadth of measures rather than excelling in just one category, the editors noted. �鶹��ý�Ŷ� is ranked second overall for service and sixth for research. It’s the 10th year in a row that �鶹��ý�Ŷ� has been in the top five of the master’s list.

The magazine also named �鶹��ý�Ŷ� 49th on the “k” rankings for institutions in the Northeast. The list recognizes schools where students of modest financial means get the most for their money. The editors note that students at these schools graduate with degrees that lead to good jobs without unmanageable debt. �鶹��ý�Ŷ� was ranked 50th in 2021.
