Frost & Sullivan Launches Program to Rank Overlooked College Programs

San Antonio – October 01, 2026 -- Frost & Sullivan has launched a Top Performers program to independently evaluate and spotlight high-performing college programs at U.S. institutions that often lack regional visibility beyond a 10-mile radius of campus.

Program targets program-level ROI rather than institutional rankings

The research analyzes academic programs based on graduate earnings, licensure outcomes, peer context, and career market indicators rather than evaluating entire institutions. Frost & Sullivan says most students attend college within 50 miles of home and compare a small number of nearby options primarily based on economic outcomes, a decision factor the company argues national rankings fail to address.
