This is mostly in regards to the infamous NYU jump, I’m wondering what the school did to improve their quality so much so fast, and why other schools can’t do the same?
I don’t want this to become a debate on whether NYU deserves to be in the Top 10, I’m curious on the actual logistics of how the school went from being #30 and overshadowed by Columbia/Cornell to a powerhouse of their own. Yet, schools like Boston University have been stuck at around 30 forever. What happened within NYU that can’t be done at other schools to allow them massive vertical movement? Was NYU just under ranked previously? Or was it legitimately equal to somewhere like BU and somehow managed to vault themselves to the top.
Note: I only chose BU as an example, but the question can be applied to any school that used to be ranked similarly with NYU
