Top 10? Top 20? 😕

Is MSU referring to Michigan state University? Michigan is ranked number 6 according to the current USnews rankings. If you were refering to Mississippi State University's vet school - it was not included in the top 20 USnews rankings.

Darla, are those rankings new for this year? Just wondering, since US News always seems to be a couple years behind with the vet school rankings (at least according to their free site).
Thanks,
Andrew

As far as I am aware of, USnews is the only public source of veterinary medical program rankings.

The rankings are based on the results of peer assessment surveys sent to deans, other administrators, and/or faculty at accredited veterinary programs. Respondents rated the academic quality of programs based on their assessment of the curriculum, faculty, and graduates. Scores for each school were determined by computing a trimmed mean (eliminating the two highest and lowest responses) of the ratings of all respondents who rated that school; scores were then sorted in descending order. Only fully accredited programs in good standing during the survey period are ranked.

Anytime I look at vet websites, if they mention their ranking, they mention their USnews ranking. The last USnews ranking occured after studies conducted in 2003 - however, this ranking is the one they include in their current 2006 report.
