I am pleased to share that Florida Atlantic has moved up in the U.S. News & World Report list of “Top Public Schools,” ranking No. 132 among the best universities in the nation. Climbing eight places from No. 140 last year, �鶹��Ʒ��Ƶrecorded the largest jump for any school in Florida’s State University System.

According to U.S. News & World Report, �鶹��Ʒ��Ƶis the No. 1 public university in Florida for campus ethnic diversity, making it the most racially, culturally and ethnically diverse school in the State University System. Additionally, �鶹��Ʒ��Ƶranked No. 41 on U.S. News & World Report’s “Social Mobility” list, which is based on Pell Grant recipient graduation rates from both public and private universities. At FAU, Pell-eligible, Black/African-American and Hispanic/Latinx students outpace our overall retention and graduation rates, and we’re very proud of that.

In other rankings, �鶹��Ʒ��Ƶrose 27 spots to No. 93 in the U.S. News & World Report list of undergraduate nursing programs. FAU’s undergraduate business programs also moved up 26 places to No. 164.

Florida Atlantic is a top choice public university and we are thrilled to see that reflected in the national rankings. Our commitment to ensure success for all has helped elevate �鶹��Ʒ��Ƶon all fronts, and I am proud to see the hard work of our faculty, staff and students paying off.
