Does anyone know why USC stopped being ranked? I am guessing it is because it is within Keck instead of being an independent school of public health, but it always has been and was previously ranked 12th. Any ideas?

Thanks

It's because it's not an accredited school of public health. U.S. News and such only rank the ASPH's.

I guess I phrased my question incorrectly. USC is accredited by CEPH but not by, as you mentioned, ASPH. Does anyone know how this affects things academically/professionally for the program and why USnews etc. used to rank the school and no longer does?

As long as its is accredited by CEPH or ASPH - you're fine professionally and academically.
Not sure about USNews.
