<p>Who will rise the most out of the schools in this range......
i nominate WPI!!!!</p>
<p>Tulane
University of Minnesota
University of Alabama
Clemson</p>
<p>Clemson because it manipulates the rankings :)</p>
<p>pierre0913 you should try and get an internship with US News world rank i think you are more knowledgable than them</p>
<p>I hope WPI does. It seems to have been shafted in the last set of rankings (pointless as they are).</p>
<p>UMass Amherst, Pitt, Clemson, Binghamton, UDel, Tulane, WPI.</p>
<p>Out of them, I think UMass and Binghamton will rise quickest.</p>
<p>Temple University.</p>
<p>Florida State University jumped 10 spots last year. This year should be about the same.</p>
<p>Without a doubt, The Ohio State University - Columbus!!!</p>
<p>Definitely Minnesota, especially with the extremelly low OOS tution cost which is attracting a lot of students. Selectivity had went from 70% to just over 40% in the last decade. It is growing in reputation too and the campus is going through a major overhaul.</p>
<p>Go Gophers!! lol~</p>
<p>SUNY Binghamton had approximately 32,000 applicants for about 2000 spots. The increased applicant pool was solely based on their cheap tuition of only $17,000 for a full year. Most tier 1 students thinking of private $50,000 universities were using Bing as a safety school …just in case they didn’t receive Obama’s stimulus. Their ranking should go up exponentially.</p>
<p>When do the new rankings come out?</p>
<p>Minnesota is poised to make another significant jump in the rankings I think. Last year they jumped 10 spots, and this year they had a record number of applicants (33K). </p>
<p>“Definitely Minnesota, especially with the extremely low OOS tuition cost which is attracting a lot of students. Selectivity had went from 70% to just over 40% in the last decade. It is growing in reputation too and the campus is going through a major overhaul.”</p>
<p>Haha, I am one of those students who chose the U of M because of the low OOS tuition (actually they offered me in-state with a scholarship, but still). I think that in the next few years, they will be in the upper 40’s to low 50’s… hopefully.</p>
<p>The rankings come out in August but seriously who believes in them anymore? I bet Yeshiva University cheats on their class sizes and selectivity numbers and bumps their rank up to #1 :)</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>People who attend/attended top 20 schools.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Not a chance after Clemson’s Peer Ranking crushes them like a grape. ;)</p>
<p>I’m not drinking the USN&WR rankings Kool Aid. That said, after spending time on this forum, you do find you root for some schools, particularly if they seem a bit overlooked. I would agree that UMinn and WPI fit that bill.</p>
