“We’ve expanded the importance of student outcomes: graduation rates and graduate salaries,” writes Harry Carr, the Journal’s ranking editor. “Critically, we now put greater emphasis on measuring the value added by colleges—not simply measuring their students’ success, but focusing on the contribution the college makes to that success.”

That new emphasis rocketed Stonehill up 62 spots over last year’s WSJ ranking, moving it to No. 157 from No. 219 in 2022. According to the National Center for Education Statistics, there are 2,637 four-year colleges in the country, which essentially puts Stonehill in the top 6 percent nationally.

This year, scores in the Journal’s ranking are based on three factors: student outcomes, accounting for 70% of the rankings; the learning environment at 20%; and diversity, at 10%.
