The Decatur Minute has an Agnes Scott press release which touts its top ranking in multiple categories in this year’s U.S. News & World Report’s Top Colleges Issue.

• #2 “Up-and-Coming School” among liberal arts colleges
• #17 among liberal arts colleges with “A Strong Commitment to Teaching”
• #22 “Greats Schools, Great Prices”
• #59 among “Top Liberal Arts Colleges” nationwide, up from #63 three years ago

Pretty sweet.  Way to show ‘em how it’s done Agnes Scott!

Also, big neighbor to the northwest, Emory, ranked 17th among all national universities.  Also interestingly enough, Emory ranked #11 among the “Up-and-Coming Schools” category.
