Usnews.com America's Best Colleges 2006

US News every year releases a list ranking all of the top colleges in the United States. I was wondering if anybody here had a scan of it or know where to find it because on the site it only shows the stats for like top 2 colleges. Thanks.

You'll need a premium account to get the stats.

That's why you pay $15 or whatever it is (I paid it a while ago so I don't really remember) for full access.

I will go on record and repeat for the 1000th time (for all collective ATOT'ers)...US News and World Reports rankings mean precisely sh1t...always have, always will.

Please, for the love of god, do not base any educational decisions off that tripe...they rank schools to sell copy and make money...period.

They do have some merit as far as "connections" are concerned. With the higher ranked colleges, you usually have a very tight connection between the college and alumni.

That means if they see that a person from so-and-so college is applying for a job, they will more than likely highly favor that applicant.

That doesn't happen very often and the chance of such an occurence is hardly worth the extra tutition.
