Additionally, FAU ranked No. 189 for “Top National Schools,” making a 20-spot climb from last year’s position at No. 209.

Florida Atlantic moved up another 20 spots in the “Best Value” category, ranking No. 146 nationally for providing high-quality education while maintaining affordability. Additionally, FAU is ranked No. 32 for “Top Performers on Social Mobility” among both public and private institutions. This ranking is based on graduation rates of first-generation students and those who receive Pell grants.
