NCSA 'Power Rankings' place Amherst second among all colleges and universities
The National Collegiate Scouting Association, an organization that seeks to connect high school students interested in intercollegiate athletic competition with schools that most appropriately meet their individual goals has announced its 2007 “Power Rankings” which order colleges based on an average of their U.S. Sports Academy Directors’ Cup ranking, their U.S. News & World Report ranking (from the 2007 issue and not the one just released) and their NCAA student-athlete graduation rate.
For the second straight year, Amherst placed second among all colleges and universities across all NCAA athletic divisions. Parker first highlighted this ranking last year. Williams placed first again after adding another first place finish in the Director’s Cup to its success in the US News rankings.
The top ten overall schools were:
Williams College
Amherst College
Duke University
University of California-San Diego
University of Notre Dame
Stanford University
Northwestern University
Harvard University
Princeton University
Middlebury College
