Its refreshing to hear a university representative acknowledge the inaccuracies if many rankings. People often get caught up in headlines and fail to read the underlying studies behind rankings and statistics. Thanks for reminding us that its not always about the number.

I agree with Alex. This is refreshing to read. So many get so caught up in the ‘numbers’. I don’t really trust the rankings at all. I feel that a college choice should be based on the best fit for the student.
Kind regards.

Kylie brings up some great points. It seems like we go through this college rankings debate each year. In my opinion college is what you make of it regardless of what school you go to.
