Hey everyone, I've had my eye on Carson Newman University for a while now. Does anyone know about its current ranking? I'm trying to weigh all the pros and cons. Any help would be awesome!
Hello! Carson-Newman University's national ranking may vary year by year and based on the methodology of different ranking sources. As of this year, the U.S. News & World Report ranks it as #361 in National Universities. Keep in mind, though, that university rankings should only be one part of your decision process. They can be helpful in getting a general sense of a school's reputation, but they often will not tell you the full picture about the quality of the institution as a whole or specific programs within it.
You might also want to consider other factors, such as the university's size, location, academic offerings, campus culture, extracurricular opportunities, and financial aid policies. Don’t hesitate to reach out to your high school counseling office for additional information, or consider scheduling a virtual tour or speaking with an admissions representative from the university to get a better feel for what the university can offer you, specifically. Best of luck with your college search!
