U.S. News and World Report drop UVA to No. 25 overall

Thanks to the latest round of college rankings from the U.S. News and World Report, UVA’s "Facts at a Glance" page can keep the following claim intact for one more years: "In the 20-year history of the rankings, U.Va. has never dropped out of the top 25 listing of all public and private universities."

That’s right, Wahoos. Holding steady at 25—down a single slot from last year, tied with Wake Forest and UCLA—the Classroom that Jefferson Built remains one of the top ranked public universities in the country, according to U.S. News’ methodology. Tell UVA how you really feel, U.S. News:

"With its balance—between cutting-edge scholarship and first-rate teaching, between rigorous academics and rewarding activities—UVA offers an undergraduate experience with few equals," reads the ranking page. Few equals, save for UCLA and those Demon Deacons. Perhaps UVA’s "most diverse, academically strong" class will bump the Cavaliers back up in next year’s list.
