Affordable, accessible, excellent, best—these are some of the adjectives used to describe Baruch in the latest college rankings by some of the nation’s top publications. Here’s a sampling:
Achieving its highest position ever in U.S. News & World Report’s annual college rankings, Baruch ranked #21 on the magazine’s 2012 “Top Regional Universities” list and #3 on its “Public Regional Universities (North)” list. Additional U.S. News recognition came for the Zicklin School, a “Top 100 Best Business Program,” and Baruch as a whole, #3 in “Campus Ethnic Diversity.”
From a pool of 1,186 institutions nationwide, the Education Trust named Baruch one of five 4-year colleges doing a good job of providing a quality education to low-income students.
The Princeton Review again ranked Baruch in the top 15 percent of U.S. colleges. Quantnetwork also reprised its praise of the Master of Financial Engineering (MFE) Program, ranking it #5 in the nation. Kudos were again forthcoming from Entrepreneur magazine, which named Baruch a Top 25 school.
“We are thrilled that we continue to be recognized for providing a great education,” said Baruch College President Mitchel Wallerstein.
