US news most selective colleges - where to find?

So I heard that US News has rankings for the most selective colleges but can't seem to find a direct link or interactive list online. If any of you guys have come across it can you point me in the right direction? Thanks!

Absolutely! I think you are referring to the rankings for National Universities on the U.S. News & World Report website. To get there, follow these steps:

1. Visit the U.S. News & World Report website.

2. Hover over the "Education" tab on the top menu.

3. Click on "Best Colleges" from the dropdown.

4. This will lead you to the ranking of various universities. Browse through the list to find the most selective colleges.

5. For detailed information including selectivity, click on the individual college.

Remember, these rankings take into consideration several factors including acceptance rate, class quartiles, and test scores. It's also worth noting that many experts suggest not to base your college decision solely on rankings. Make sure to take a holistic approach and consider factors like location, major offerings, campus culture, alumni network, and financials while making your decision.
