Towson University continues to receive national recognition. U.S. News & World Report has named TU the No. 5 public undergraduate university in the north and No. 15 overall, up six spots from the 2024 rankings. 

“It brings great pride to see Towson University again recognized for our transformational impact,” says President Mark R. Ginsberg. “Beyond our world-class educational offerings, TU provides students and their families with affordable, life-changing access to opportunities. This ranking affirms just that.”

USNWR also evaluates universities on social mobility, value and support for veterans. TU climbed 10 spots in regional social mobility rankings, landing at No. 54 in the north. This was based on the enrollment and graduation rates of students from disadvantaged backgrounds, in addition to average borrower debt and early career earnings. TU also placed 64th in value and was named the fifth-best university for veterans, its second-straight year as such.
 
These recognitions are the latest in a growing list of achievements that represent TU’s commitment to excellence. Earlier this month, the Wall Street Journal recognized TU as the No. 1 public university in Maryland and 15th-best in the country. 
 
“TU's national acclaim is a testament to our dedicated faculty and staff, whose contributions make a difference everyday,” says Ginsberg.
