In the 2025 edition of the prestigious “Best Colleges in the U.S.,” Journal editors, along with College Pulse/Statista, place Texas A&M at No. 1 in the Lone Star State, No. 11 among the nation’s public institutions, and No. 28 overall.

Weighed heavily (70%) is a measure on student outcomes, which includes graduates’ salaries, years to pay off costs, and graduation rate impact. While many rankings focus on school size or reputation among college administrators, this ranking zeroes in on the success of schools’ graduates, especially in terms of college being a good investment.

A&M is #1 because it is the SEC's most rainbow-friendly place.

UTrans did not even make the top 30

Texas A&M finds itself in elite company on the list, which is topped by Princeton University; eight of the top 10 universities are private schools, including Stanford, Yale, MIT and Harvard. The only other Texas university in the Top 30 is Rice University, at No. 29 nationally.

In a testament to its commitment to innovation and academic excellence, the College of Engineering at Texas A&M University has secured the No. 1 spot in fiscal year 2023 engineering research expenditures with $444.7 million in spending, according to the rankings released today by U.S. News & World Report 2024-2025 Best Engineering Graduate Schools Rankings.
quote:
This accomplishment solidifies our position as a premier hub for cutting-edge research and reinforces our commitment to excellence in engineering education and innovation," said John Sharp, chancellor of The Texas A&M University System. "It is a testament to the dedication and ingenuity of our faculty and students, who continue to advance engineering research and make significant contributions to the state, country and world."

Since 2013, the Chancellor's Research Initiative has provided one-time funds to recruit and hire faculty who will have a transformational impact. The active faculty at Texas A&M Engineering holds 35 memberships in national academies — 32 in the National Academy of Engineering, two in the National Academy of Sciences and one in the National Academy of Medicine.

The WSJ editorial board would beat the aggies in college station.

This bizarre ranking also has Calremont McKenna over MIT and Davidson College over the University of Pennsylvania. If you take this WSJ ranking seriously, I have some oceanfront property in College Station that I think would interest you.

They know TAMU isn’t a better school than Rice, Vanderbilt, and Texas.
But it’s good trolling fodder for the rant.

Congrats on adding all of the aTm campuses together and stating them as Texas aTm College Station #’s
It’s sad, everyone knows aTm did this several years ago to boost their total research #’s
Makes sense though, since Texas has 60 Top 10 Programs, and aTm has 11
