June 7, 2010 (INSIDE HIGER ED):
U.S. News World Report is considering several changes in the methodology for its college rankings. Robert Morse, who directs the rankings, discussed the possible changes and invited comment on them in a blog post. He said that the magazine may combine a ranking by high school counselors with the peer ranking currently done by college presidents -- one of the most controversial parts of the rankings. He also wrote that the magazine may add yield -- the percentage of accepted applicants who enroll -- to its formula, and may give more weight to "predicted graduation rate," which gives credit to colleges that exceed their expected rates.
