University
shines
in
the
latest
rankings
of
the
nation's
top
colleges
by
U.S.
News
&
World
Report,
up
one
notch
to
number
nine
among
the
2022
"Midwest's
Best
Universities"
list.
It's the 28th straight year the magazine's survey of "America's Best Colleges" places BW among the leading regional universities, but that's not where the kudos end. BW is also lauded for superior achievement in a variety of areas including:
The
recognition
of
BW's
stellar
faculty
for
"Best
Undergraduate
Teaching"
is
an
honor
determined
by
a
survey
of
college
presidents,
provosts
and
admissions
deans
at
peer
institutions.
BW also ranks among the "Most Innovative Schools" in the Midwest, reflected in new programs and facilities like the cutting-edge Knowlton Center for computer science, engineering, math and physics that opened earlier this year and distinctive regional partnerships.
"Teaching and innovation go hand in hand for our faculty," said BW President Bob Helmer. "Our professors consistently break new ground in and out of the classroom, creating programs and experiences for our students that prepare them for careers in the ever-changing world we live in. They are a truly exceptional group of teachers and mentors who have earned this recognition."
For
students
looking
to
get
the
best
return
on
their
tuition
investment,
a
2022
"Best
Value"
ranking
reflects
both
the
quality
of
a
BW
education
and
the
generous
scholarships
and
financial
support
that
create
affordable
excellence
and
access
for
students
from
all
backgrounds.
BW also earned a commendation for improving the lives of students upon graduation with a "Best for Social Mobility" ranking, which measures a school's success in graduating underserved students who receive federal Pell Grant support.
BW's commitment to the educational goals of military veterans and active-duty service members also landed the University on the U.S. News list of "Best Colleges for Veterans." The ranking recognizes, among other factors, BW's participation in the Yellow Ribbon Program.
BW's strong Military and Veteran Support Team provides help navigating the process of admission, financial aid, academic advising, career services and certification of enrollment. Listed as a Military Friendly School by GI Jobs since 2008, BW also offers credit for military training, a student-veteran organization for peer support and a student veteran's center for gathering, studying and enjoying other comforts.
The U.S. News results affirm other "best college" rankings, including The Wall Street Journal/Time Higher Education (WSJ/THE), Forbes, Washington Monthly's "Best Bang for the Buck: Midwest" and Princeton Review, which lists Midwest schools that are "academically outstanding and well worth consideration in your college search."
