September 14, 2015
The just-released 2015-2016 U.S. News & World Report Best Colleges survey ranks Farmingdale as one of the best regional colleges in the north. Among all public colleges in the north region, FSC placed 11th. In addition, Farmingdale was also cited as having the third-lowest student debt load at graduation among regional colleges in the north.
“Farmingdale State College’s enrollment continues to grow due to the excellence of our faculty/staff and the relevancy of our degrees,” said President Keen. “And this recognition of our value by U.S. News & World Report confirms our students’ good judgement.”
“The State University of New York has historically offered students an affordable, accessible higher education that is second to none,” said SUNY Chancellor Nancy L. Zimpher. “As we work to bring the benefits of a SUNY education to even more students through our Completion Agenda, we are proud to see so many of our colleges and universities recognized by U.S. News & World Report again this year.”
U.S. News & World Report categorizes schools by their mission, and uses up to 16 indicators of academic excellence in arriving at their rankings. Schools in each category are ranked against their peers.
