The Carnegie Classifications of Higher Education (Carnegie Classifications) and the American Council on Education (ACE) announced today its new Student Access and Earnings Classification which included eleven HBCUs earning its highest rating and being designated as Opportunity Colleges.

The new classification examines the extent to which institutions serve students using two measures: access and earnings. Access measures the level to which institutions are serving student populations that are reflective of the locations they serve and Earnings is reflective of how much money graduates earn compared to peers in the job market. Schools which measure high on both the access and earning measures were deemed Opportunity Colleges.

A bit disappointed with the number of applicants coming from my school but given the issues over the past decade there, I can’t say I’m surprised.
