Hey peeps, so I’m putting together my college list and Clark Atlanta University seems interesting. I know some say rankings aren’t everything, but I’m curious, how much weight does Clark Atlanta University’s ranking carry, especially to those in the workforce? Do alumni or current students feel it impacted their opportunities post-graduation?
In many fields, the specific ranking of your school doesn't have as much impact as you might think, especially once you've gained some work experience. Employers often look at the skills and knowledge you bring to the table, as well as internships or projects you've completed during your studies. CAU has a strong community and network, especially among HBCUs, which can greatly support your career growth. I’d say focus on how the school aligns with your personal and professional goals, and you'll find success!
