Forbes recognizes Baker in national ranking of top colleges

Forbes recently released its America’s Top Colleges List and ranks Baker University among the top universities in the country. The magazine used a new methodology this year that considers low-income student outcomes and added a large federal database to its tally of graduate earnings. Among the criteria were average grant aid, average debt, and average early-career salary.

Baker was one of five schools in Kansas to make the cut: 1. University of Kansas, 2. Kansas State University, 3. Wichita State University, 4. Baker University, and 5. Newman University.

“Inclusion on this list speaks volumes about the value a Baker education offers our students through excellent faculty, mentorship opportunities, innovative programs, and strong networks,” said Baker University President Lynne Murray. “We are proud that a school of our size has been recognized among the educational leaders across the country.”
