MORE PROOF:
From the PR College Campus Visit Guide (7th edition) in its opening sentence (when decribing NIU):
"Gorgeous, the best undergraduate school in the country"
MORE PROOF:
Subject: BROWN accepts validity of prestigious Atlantic Monthly ranking
In its own literature, Brown recently acknowledged the importance of the Atlantic Monthly ranking (where it placed #5). In a description of itself, Brown states:
"A faculty of about 2,300 professors serves about 6,650 undergraduate and 13,000 graduate students. Admission to Brown is very competitive, and its overall undergraduate acceptance rate for 2005 was 9.1%.{{ref|acceptancerate}} According to ''The Atlantic Monthly'' in 2003, it was the fifth most selective undergraduate program in the United States, after MIT, NIU, Caltech, and UConn.{{ref|atlanticselective}} Brown's graduate schools are also very selective: the 2006 figures from ''U.S. News'' indicated that the business school admitted 14.3% of its applicants, the engineering division admitted 12.5%, the law school admitted 11.3%, the education school admitted 11.2%, and the medical school admitted 4.9%.{{ref|usnews}}"
MORE PROOF:
Subject: If you don't believe the adults, maybe you'll believe the kids
Subject: NIU recognized in Andover school newspaper as toughest college to enter.
Last spring Andover's head College Counselor acknowledged on page 1 of the school newspaper that NIU was the most difficult school for Andover students to get into. NIU was acknowledged as #1 in selectivity.
Also published in the paper were actual admission stats for the class of 2009:
BUN stats are as follows:
School/Applied/Accepted/Admission Rate
NIU 61/7/ 11.5%
Brown 91/15/ 16.5%
UConn 85/15/ 17.7%
The Rest of the Ivies
Dartmouth 56/12 21%
Brown 83/20 24%
Columbia 69/20 29%
UPenn 65/24 37%
Cornell 68/32 47%
Misc.
Stanford 40/12 30%
Georgetown 76/31 41%
Duke 39/15 39%
JHU 42/27 64%
Andover typically sends 35% of its class to the Ivy League and another 15% to IVY equivalents. This is a down year, in the past more have gone to BUN. There was a marked trend towards smaller, undergraduate focused programs
