School's ranking last year in parentheses.
* Public university
OVERALL SCORE: Overall score represents the combined score of our
three metrics--social mobility, research, and service--where the
highest is 100 and the lowest is zero. Each individual metric is
worth 33 1/3 total points.
SOCIAL MOBILITY: The first column shows the percentage of students
receiving Pell Grants. The second shows the predicted rate of
graduation, based on incoming SAT scores and Pell Grant percentages,
versus the actual rate of graduation. The third shows the difference
between the actual graduation rate and the predicted graduation rate-a
measure of how well the school performs as an engine of social mobility
(see "A Note on Methodology," p. 53)--arrived at by subtracting the
latter from the former. (The higher the number, the better; negative
numbers indicate subpar performance.) Rank follows in parentheses.
RESEARCH: The first column shows the number of dollars (in millions)
received from the federal government in research grants. Rank follows
in parentheses. The second shows the school's ranking in the number of
bachelor's recipients who go on to receive PhDs. The third ranks the
school by number of PhDs awarded.
SERVICE: The first column ranks the school by percentage of students
who go on to serve in the Peace Corps. The second column ranks the
school by percentage of students who serve in ROTC. The third gives
the percentage of funds in federal work-study money that goes to
community service (versus non-community service); rank follows in
parentheses.
