When it comes to choosing a college, rankings can feel like the end-all-be-all. We get it—seeing a school in the “Top 10” list is reassuring. But are those numbers telling the full story?

In this episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on college rankings. With insights from Former Assistant Director of Admissions at NYU, we dive into:

  • Why rankings can sometimes mislead students and families
  • The factors behind the numbers—and which ones really matter
  • What students should prioritize instead: academic fit, campus environment, and long-term career impact

We’ll help you and your student move beyond the rankings hype and focus on finding a school that’s the right fit, not just a “top pick.”
