We have some pretty awesome colleges here in Northern Colorado, but how do they rank against the rest of the country's?

Colorado State University, my alma mater, is ranked at #166 in 'National Universities' for 2020, according to U.S. News.

However, CSU is #121 in the 'Best Colleges for Veterans' category, and #56 in 'Best Undergraduate Teaching.'

The University of Colorado Boulder is ranked at #104 in 'National Universities,' and at #69 in 'Best Colleges for Veterans.' They beat us in the Showdown, and now this, too? Ugh.

I'm not sure why there is a range on this one, but U.S. News ranked the University of Northern Colorado at #293-#381 in 'National Universities.'

UNC placed at #204 in 'Top Performers on Social Mobility' and at #260 in 'Business Programs.'

Overall, I'd say all of these schools are killin' it. But I'm biased, so go Rams.
