The NCAA released graduation rate information among all college sports. BC was one of only 6 schools in the FBS with a graduation Success rate score of above 90. The 6 schools are , The six FBS institutions that received scores of 90 or better were Duke (96), Notre Dame (96), Navy (93), Northwestern (92), BC (91) and Vanderbilt (91).
It should also be noted that BC lead the country with 21 athletic programs with a perfect score of 100.
No surprises there. All, unbelievably great Universities that even the smartest student would have some trouble getting into.
I didnt know about Vanderbilt but I guess that is one of the reasons they put this out!
Vandy is sometimes referred to as "the Harvard of the South". It's a legitimately top notch school. Maybe not quite Harvard quality, but definitely top 20.
good to know, I really had no idea. But it sounds like they are kinda the Duke/BC of the SEC
