Keuka College has earned continued recognition in the 2027 U.S. News & World Report Best Colleges rankings, maintaining its position at No. 128 among “Regional Universities in the North” and advancing one place to No. 75 among the region’s “Top Performers in Social Mobility.”
The rankings, released today, also include the College at No. 85 on the new “Top Private Colleges – Regional Universities in the North” list.
The continued recognition reflects Keuka College’s commitment to providing students with a high-quality education that combines strong academics with opportunities to apply their learning beyond the classroom.
“Recognition like this is meaningful because it highlights the quality of the education we provide and the opportunities we create for our students. Our focus is on helping every student succeed – academically, personally, and professionally – and preparing them to use what they learn to build impactful careers, strengthen their communities, and create greater opportunities for themselves and their families.”
The U.S. News recognition follows several other recent acknowledgments of Keuka College’s academic quality and value.
This summer, the College was included on Money magazine’s “2026 Best Colleges” list and was ranked among the top half of colleges in the Northeast in Washington Monthly’s “2026 Best Colleges for Your Tuition (and Tax) Dollars” rankings, which considers factors including social mobility, public service, and research.
The combined recognition spotlights the many aspects of a Keuka College education, from academic quality to social mobility and value.
“Our students come to Keuka College with different goals, backgrounds, and aspirations,” said President Storey. “What they share is the opportunity to learn in a community where their success is the number one priority. We will continue to invest in the academic programs, experiential learning, and support services that help our students turn a Keuka College education into a lifetime of achievement.”
