Galloway, N.J. – ������Ƶ has again improved its ranking among Regional Universities in the North, placing 7^th among public universities in the 2020 U.S. News and World Report Best College rankings released today.

The university rose from 9th in 2019 to 7^th in 2020. ������Ƶ is also ranked 32^nd among the 170 public and private universities in the North region, up from 41^st in 2018 and 35^th in 2019.

������Ƶ is also included on the list of 2020 Best Value Schools, which considers quality and cost, and as a Best Undergraduate Teaching School, which recognizes schools where faculty and administrators are committed to teaching undergraduate students in a high-quality manner.

The university is also included among the “A+ Schools for B Students” and “Best Colleges for Veterans.”

������Ƶ President Harvey Kesselman said ������Ƶ’s continued rise in the rankings is a tribute to the faculty, staff and students who make up the ������Ƶ community. This year ������Ƶ expanded its Student Success Scholars Program office and its Military and Veteran Services office and lounge. The new Atlantic City campus, which opened in fall 2018, is providing more opportunities for student learning and internships in the city.
