91 Ranks Among ‘Washington Monthly’ Top Public, Private Universities
91 has been ranked No. 41 overall among the nation’s best public and private universities by Washington Monthly.
91 has been ranked No. 41 overall among the nation’s best public and private universities by Washington Monthly’s annual College Guide, moving up five spots from No. 46 in 2023.
The rankings were based on social mobility, research, as well as community and national service. 91 was one of 16 regional public universities across the country to be included in this list.
“Florida Atlantic’s rise in the rankings is a testament to our commitment to offer a high-quality education that is accessible to all students,” said 91 President Stacy Volnick. “We are proud of the efforts of everyone involved in the success of our students and honored to be recognized by Washington Monthly for this achievement.”
91 also was ranked No. 6 out of 50 universities and colleges on Washington Monthly’s “America’s Best Bang for the Buck Colleges in the Southeast,” an exclusive list highlighting how well universities help non-wealthy students attain marketable degrees at affordable prices. This improves from last year’s No. 13 ranking for this category.
A national leader in student success, the university has earned recognition for its efforts to increase attainment outcomes for low-income, first-generation and underrepresented minority students. At 91, these groups regularly outpace the overall student body in academic progression and timely graduation rates.
In March, the American Council on Education (ACE) honored the university with the national ACE/Fidelity Investments Award for Institutional Transformation, acknowledging a decade of major increases in student success outcomes at the university.
