Trine among US News Best Colleges

ANGOLA, Ind. (09/24/2024) — U.S. News & World Report has recognized Trine University in its 2025 Best Colleges rankings, released Sept. 24.

Trine was included in the publication's top 20 Midwest regional colleges, as well as its rankings for social mobility and undergraduate engineering.

US News says the social mobility list recognizes institutions that are more successful at advancing social mobility by enrolling and graduating large proportions of disadvantaged students.

"We're pleased that U.S. News & World Report has once again recognized Trine University not only for its overall excellence, but for the opportunities the university provides to all students, as evidenced by our 99% job placement rate," said Earl D. Brooks II, Ph.D., Trine University president. "This and many other reasons are why record numbers of students continue to seek out a quality education at Trine."

Earlier this year, Trine was honored on the Princeton Review's "Best in the Midwest."

Using a wide range of data sources, U.S. News analysts and editors calculated more than 80 Best Colleges rankings, all with the intent of enabling students and their families to identify colleges that best meet their needs. The rankings highlight colleges that excel in such areas as value, social mobility, teaching, veterans' needs, HBCUs and in six academic disciplines (business, computer science, engineering, nursing, economics and psychology).
