Bluffton University remains in the top one-third of Midwest “regional colleges” in U.S. News & World Report rankings.
The 2016 edition of the magazine’s Best Colleges guidebook ranks Bluffton tied for 27th among 96 comparable institutions in 12 Midwest states. That’s up from 28th last year, “driven by increases in our freshman retention rate and lower student/faculty ratio,” noted Ron Headings, Bluffton’s vice president for enrollment management and marketing.
