Developed by the team of academics, data scientists, and higher education experts at AcademicInfluence.com, this innovative technology scours the web’s leading data repositories to map and measure the influence of a school’s faculty, staff, and alumni.

No other college ranking site can provide this kind of objective measurement of academic quality and impact. Only AcademicInfluence.com.
Through Custom College Rankings, students can leverage this ranking technology to build their own rankings. Newly revised as of September 1, 2021, the ranking tool allows students to employ a multi-point criteria selection process, one which ultimately delivers a ranking of only those schools that fit their personal specifications.
Among the 19 different filter criteria and 17 options available for ranking:
• state,
• degree level,
• average acceptance rate,
• graduation rate,
• min/max tuition cost,
• min/max median ACT or SAT score,
• school type,
• public or private status,
• religious affiliation,
• min/max on-campus student population,
• discipline and subdiscipline ranking,
• school desirability ranking,
• Concentrated Influence™ ranking (to spotlight influential smaller schools),
• and more.
“As an educator and a father of college-bound kids, I hear my students voice their frustration over getting locked into someone else’s idea of what makes a good school, without any consideration for what the student wants. We want to provide them better, more personal options,” says Dr. Jed Macosko, academic director of AcademicInfluence.com and professor of physics at Wake Forest University.
“Our team at AcademicInfluence.com is meeting this challenge with an InfluenceRanking Engine technology that generates customized, on-the-fly rankings. We’re empowering students to make choices based on their own needs, while at the same time providing the kind of impartial influence ranking no one else can offer.”
The resulting list of schools will be ranked according to the filter criteria and ranking options selected by the individual user. Each school in a ranking offers basic information along with a link to a school profile page, which may include additional top rankings for that school as well as admissions info, costs, 10-year post-graduate average earnings for alumni, campus information, leading areas of influence, famous alumni/alumnae, contact information, and more.
“Students have endured a lot over the past 18 months,” says Macosko. “AcademicInfluence.com can ease the stress of a college search—while providing the most informative tools and articles on the web. Students who take advantage of our advanced Custom College Rankings can systematically narrow their focus to only those schools that truly deliver on both academics and experience.”
