NYU Tops “Employability” Ranking

Students gather in Washington Square Park after their graduation ceremonies.

As we continue our work on affordability at NYU, we are also proud that the University was this year named “the best in the country for preparing graduates for jobs” by employers. NYU is followed by Harvard and Princeton.

Graduate employability: top universities in the United States ranked by employers

Employability — that is, how competitive NYU graduates are in the job market, and how prepared they are for careers of today and tomorrow — is one way to measure the value of investing in higher education.

As the top American institution on the 2016 Global University Employability Ranking, we proudly stand behind the value of an NYU education. Yet, we don’t rest on these laurels; we continue to take actions that make NYU more affordable for more students, and make our value even more distinguishable.
