The new US college league tables, launched in partnership with The Wall Street Journal, ranks more than 1,000 American colleges and universities, and was first published in September 2016. The rankings assess teaching (including graduate outcomes), and place the student experience at their heart thanks to a range of new performance metrics.
THE has developed a model which evaluates colleges across four core competencies: resources; engagement; outcomes; and environment.
