SALISBURY, MD—U.S. News & World Report again has named Salisbury University among the nation’s “Best Colleges.”

The nearly 600 institutions in U.S. News’ “Best Regional Universities” category are split among four geographic areas — North, South, Midwest and West. In the northern region, SU ranked 49th in the top tier among 175 publics and privates, 17th among the region’s “Top Public Schools” and 37th among the North’s “Best Value Schools.”

SU also once again was recognized as one of the “Top Performers on Social Mobility” and for having one of the “Best Bachelor of Science in Nursing Programs.”

“Salisbury’s rise among the best universities and top public schools in the North is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our students, faculty and staff,” said President Carolyn Ringer Lepre. “From our stunning campus to the high-impact practices that set us apart, we are honored to be recognized by U.S. News for our unwavering commitment to creating an enriching environment that champions student success and innovation at every turn.”

U.S. News uses several criteria to measure academic quality including student outcomes, faculty resources, financial resources, student excellence, social mobility, success in graduating students from diverse backgrounds, and assessments from peer institutions and high school counselors.

Other publications also have taken note of what SU has to offer. In recent months, SU was named among The Best 390 Colleges for the 26th consecutive year by The Princeton Review, one of “America’s Top Colleges” by Forbes and one of “The Best Colleges in America” by Money.

Washington Monthly again has named SU among the nation’s top master’s-level and “Best Bang for the Buck” institutions. For the first time, The Wall Street Journal and College Pulse this year ranked SU among the “Best Colleges in the U.S.”
