Money<\/em> magazine released its latest appraisals of the Best Colleges in America today while again naming Kalamazoo College among the top colleges in the country.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The publication revamped its college-ranking system last year into a star-ratings list. Of the 2,400 institutions Money<\/em> analyzed this year, 745 four-year public and private institutions received at least a two-star rating based on 25 factors such as graduation rates, cost and what alumni can expect to earn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

K received four stars, making it one of about 200 private schools from around the country\u2014regardless of size\u2014and one of seven in Michigan with at least that ranking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Money\u2019s<\/em> story<\/a> announcing the rankings specifically mentions K, citing it as a gem \u201cknown for its K-Plan<\/em><\/a>, which augments a traditional liberal arts curriculum with experiential learning through research, study abroad, internships, and community service and civic projects.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The full list<\/a> of Money\u2019s<\/em> Best Colleges in America and the publication\u2019s methodologies<\/a> are available at its website. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
