GROVE CITY, Pa. – Grove City College ranked No. 59 among NCAA Division III colleges and universities across the country for both strong academic and athletic standards in NCSA Athletic Recruiting’s ninth annual Collegiate Power Rankings. The rankings were developed to help prospective student athletes and their families evaluate the particular strengths of the top colleges and universities at the Division I, II and III levels.
The rankings are calculated for each college and university by averaging student-athlete graduation rates, academic rankings provided by “U.S. News & World Report” and the strength of athletic departments as determined by the Learfield Sports Directors' Cup.
“The Power Rankings are an objective tool to empower student athletes to find the right fit in a college or university, not only for its athletics, but academics as well," said Krause, CEO and Founder of NCSA Athletic Recruiting. "Our hope is to educate these student athletes and their parents on the importance of evaluating schools that will provide the education for an enriched, successful career after college, in addition to athletic success.”
NCSA Athletic Recruiting seeks to connect more than 35,000 college coaches with student-athletes pursuing both higher education and the opportunity to compete in athletics at the college level.
