University of North Georgia makes magazine’s top-colleges list

The University of North Georgia is among 660 public and private universities in Forbes Magazine's annual "America's Top Colleges" ranking. It's the first time UNG has been named to the list, and UNG is one of six public universities in Georgia on it. "UNG's inclusion on Forbes' Best Colleges list is indicative of our increasing national recognition and the momentum we have established," said UNG President Bonita Jacobs. The magazine's ranking measures the return students receive on their investment, and focuses on student outcomes in five categories: student satisfaction, post-graduate success, student debt, graduation rate and academic success.
