U.S. News & World Report has ranked ÄûÃʵ¼º½ among the top universities in the nation for the social mobility of its graduates. ÄûÃʵ¼º½ is No. 11 in Texas and No. 61 in the nation according to the 2024 College Rankings.
The U.S. News' social mobility ranking considers Pell Grant and first-generation graduation rates as factors.
According to U.S. News, “Some colleges are more successful than others at advancing social mobility by enrolling and graduating large proportions of students awarded with Pell Grants. The vast majority of these federal grants are awarded to students whose adjusted gross family incomes are under $50,000.â€
