College and University Rankings College and university rankings From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia College and university rankings are rankings of institutions in higher education ordered by various combinations of various factors. Rankings have most often been conducted by magazines, newspapers, websites, governments, or academics. In addition to ranking entire institutions, organizations perform rankings of specific programs, departments, and schools. Various rankings consider combinations of measures of wealth, research excellence and/or influence, selectivity, student options, eventual success, demographics, and other criteria. There are no known college rankings of student academic quality. Some rankings evaluate institutions within a single country, while others assess institutions worldwide. The subject has produced much debate about rankings' usefulness and accuracy. The expanding diversity in rating methodologies and accompanying criticisms of each indicate the lack of consensus in the field.

Several organizations produce worldwide university rankings, including: Academic Ranking of World Universities[edit] Main article: Academic Ranking of World Universities The Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) compiled by the Shanghai Jiao Tong University and now maintained by the Shanghai Ranking Consultancy, has provided annual global rankings of universities since 2003, making it the earliest of its kind. The ranking is funded by the Chinese government and its initial purpose was to measure the gap between Chinese and "world class" universities. 2014 Academic Ranking of World Universities, has been published; there are no Chinese Universities in the first 100 of 500 places.[1] ARWU rankings have been cited by The Economist magazine.[2] It has been lauded for being "consistent and transparent" based on an article. [3] The education ministers of France, Norway and Denmark traveled to China to discuss and find ways to improve their rankings.[4] ARWU does not rely on surveys and school submissions. Among other criteria, ARWU includes the number of articles published by Nature or Science and the number of Nobel Prize winners and Fields Medalists (mathematics).[5] Harvard has topped the ranking for years.[6] One of the primary criticisms of ARWU's methodology is that it is biased towards the natural sciences and English language science journals over other subjects.[5] Moreover, the ARWU is known for "relying solely on research indicators", and "the ranking is heavily weighted toward institutions whose faculty or alumni have won Nobel Prizes": it does not measure "the quality of teaching or the quality of humanities."[7] Center for World University Rankings[edit] This Saudi Arabia-based consulting organization has published yearly rankings of world universities since 2012. Rankings are based on quality of education, alumni employment, quality of faculty, number of publications, number of publications in high-quality journals, citations, scientific impact and number of patents.[8][9] G-factor[edit] G-factor ranks university and college web presence by counting the number of links only from other university websites, using Google search engine data. G-factor is an indicator of the popularity or importance of each university's website from the combined perspectives of other institutions. It claims to be an objective peer review of a university through its website—in social network theory terminology, G-factor measures the centrality of each university's website in the network of university websites.[10] Global University Ranking[edit] Global University Ranking measures over 400 universities using the RatER, an autonomous, non- commercial, Russian rating agency supported by Russia's academic society.[11][12] The methodology pools universities from ARWU, HEEACT, Times-QS and Webometrics and a pool of experts formed by project officials and managers to determine the rating scales for indicators in seven areas. It considers academic performance, research performance, faculty expertise, resource availability, socially significant activities of graduates, international activities, and international opinion. Each expert independently evaluates these performance indicators for candidate universities. The rating is the average of the expert evaluations.[13] This ranking raised questions when it placed RussianMoscow State University in fifth place, ahead of Harvard and Cambridge.[14] HEEACT—Ranking of Scientific Papers[edit] Main article: HEEACT – Performance Ranking of Scientific Papers for World Universities This article needs attention from an expert on the subject. Please add a reason or a talk parameter to this template to explain the issue with the article. Consider associating this request with aWikiProject. (January 2011) The Performance Ranking of Scientific Papers for World Universities was produced until 2012 by the Higher Education Evaluation and Accreditation Council of Taiwan (HEEACT).[15] The indicators were designed to measure both long-term and short-term research performance of research universities. This project employed bibliometrics to analyze and rank the performance of the 500 top universities and the top 300 universities in six fields. HEEACT further provides subject rankings in science and technology fields. It also ranked the top 300 universities across ten science and technology fields. [16] The ranking included eight indicators. They were: articles published over prior 11 years; citations of those articles, "current" articles, current citations, average citations, "H-index", number of "highly– cited papers" and high impact journal articles. They representedx three criteria of scientific papers performance: research productivity, research impact, and research excellence. The 2007 ranking methodology was alleged to have favored universities with medical schools, and in response, HEEACT added assessment criteria.[17] The six field–based rankings are based on the subject categorization of WOS, including Agriculture & Environment Sciences (AGE), Clinical Medicine (MED), Engineering, Computing & Technology (ENG), Life Sciences (LIFE), Natural Sciences (SCI) and Social Sciences (SOC). The ten subjects include Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Geosciences, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering (including Energy & Fuels), Materials Sciences, and Civil Engineering (including Environmental Engineering).[16] High Impact Universities: Research Performance Index[edit] The High Impact Universities Research Performance Index (RPI) is a 2010 Australian initiative[18] that studies university research performance. The pilot project involved a trial of over 1,000 universities or institutions and 5,000 constituent faculties (in various disciplines) worldwide. The top 500 results for universities and faculties were reported at the project website.[18] The project promotes simplicity, transparency and fairness. The assessment analyzes research performance as measured by publications and citations. Publication and citation data is drawn from Scopus. The project uses standard bibliometric indicators, namely the 10-year g-index and h-index. RPI equally weighs contributions from the five faculties. The five faculty scores are normalized to place them onto a common scale. The normalized scores are then averaged to arrive at a final RPI. Human Resources & Labor Review[edit] The Human Resources & Labor Review (HRLR) publishes a human competitiveness index & analysis annually in Chasecareer Network (ChaseCareer.Net). This system is based on Human Resources & Labour Review Indexes (HRI and LRI), which measure the performance of top 300 universities' graduates.[19] In 2004, a couple of educational institutions voiced concerns at several events in regard to the accuracy and effectiveness of ranking bodies

  • The College Hopes & Worries Survey 2020
    The College Hopes & Worries Survey 2020 Findings ________________________________________________________________________ About the Survey The Princeton Review®, one of the nation's best-known education services companies, has conducted the College Hopes & Worries Survey annually since 2003. Approximately 177,000 people have participated in the survey since its inception. (See end* of this report for numbers of respondents year-over-year.) About 80% have been students applying to colleges; 20% have been parents of applicants. Survey participants have primarily been users of the company's website and readers of its annual Best Colleges book in which the survey questionnaire is published every year. The survey has 15–20 questions, the majority of which have been asked annually or for several years. The questions have multiple-choice answers with the exception of one question, "What is your 'dream' college?" that invites a fill-in-the-blank answer. The 2020 survey findings are based on responses from 12,845 people: 80% (10,276) were students applying to colleges, and 20% (2,569) were parents of applicants. Respondents completed the survey between August 2019 and early March 2020. They hailed from all 50 states and DC. The majority of respondents completed the survey online via outreaches The Princeton Review conducted. Some respondents submitted a paper version of the survey that was published in The Princeton Review book, The Best 385 Colleges / 2020 Edition (Penguin Random House, August 2019). The company awards a $2,000 college scholarship to one survey participant and a Princeton Review book to 25 other participants (all chosen at random). Participants chosen to receive a Princeton Review book were offered their choice of either The Best Value Colleges, Colleges That Create Futures, or Paying for College.

  • College Admissions Process Can Often Be a Top Source of Stress and Anxiety for Students
    October 2018 A “FIT” OVER RANKINGS Why College Engagement Matters More Than Selectivity EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Based on the Challenge Success survey data of more than 100,000 high school students across the country, we know that the college admissions process can often be a top source of stress and anxiety for students. While many schools, counselors, and parents encourage students to focus on finding the “right fit” college, this advice can be difficult to follow without a better understanding of what “fit” means and what matters most — both for learning and engagement in college — and for life outcomes beyond college. This paper reviews and synthesizes key research in order to address many of the important questions and concerns we hear from students, parents, and schools about the college admissions process: What do college rankings really measure? Are students who attend more selective colleges better off later in life? What is “fit” and why does it matter? What the research shows: RANKINGS ARE PROBLEMATIC. Many students and families rely on college rankings published by well-known organizations to define quality. The higher the ranking, the logic goes, the better the college must be and vice versa. We find that many of the metrics used in these rankings are weighted arbitrarily and are not accurate indicators of a college’s quality or positive outcomes for students. COLLEGE SELECTIVITY IS NOT A RELIABLE PREDICTOR OF STUDENT LEARNING, JOB SATISFACTION, OR WELL-BEING. We explore the research on whether attending a selective college predicts important life outcomes and find no significant relationship between a school’s selectivity and student learning, future job satisfaction, or well-being.

In this paper, we take a different perspective. In our view, constructing a high-quality university ranking requires not only an advanced understanding of methodological issues but also a sufficient level of knowledge of the way in which university rankings are used. The use of university rankings has been studied using questionnaires and interviews (e.g., Hazelkorn, 2015). We take an alternative approach by analyzing the activities of visitors of a university ranking website.
