Update to the 2013 Best Graduate Schools Rankings

admin — Fri, 23 Mar 2012 19:00:00 +0000

Schools tell U.S. News of reporting errors for data used in the new Best Graduate Schools rankings.
Two schools have advised U.S. News that they had made reporting errors that resulted in submitting inflated data that were used in the recently published 2013 edition of the Best Graduate Schools rankings, resulting in their rankings being higher than they otherwise might have been.

Because of the discrepancies, U.S. News is moving these two programs to the “Unranked” category in the Best Graduate Schools section of www.usnews.com. Unranked means that U.S. News did not calculate a numerical ranking for this school. This Unranked status will last until the publication of the next Best Graduate Schools rankings and until the accuracy of each school’s next data submission is confirmed to U.S. News.
