UMKC squeaks onto Forbes’ list of ‘America’s Best Colleges’

Don’t feel bad, University of Missouri-Kansas City. At least you made it on Forbes’ list of “America’s Best Colleges,” even if it’s at No. 592 out of 600. And look at you, Rockhurst. Nice work.

Here’s the list of top colleges in Missouri and where they ranked overall:

No. 45 — Washington University
No. 126 — Westminster College
No. 163 — Rockhurst University

No. 243 — Drury University

No. 317 — William Jewell College

No. 374 — University of Missouri, Columbia

No. 469 — Truman State University

No. 485 — Missouri University of Science and Technology

No. 502 — Missouri State University

No. 524 — St. Louis University
No. 592 — University of Missouri-Kansas City

Only three Kansas colleges made the cut.

No. 425 — University of Kansas
No. 440 — Bethel College
No. 480 — Kansas State University

Big 12 bragging rights go to Missouri (No. 374) even though they still can’t spell Missouri right (M-I-Z-Z-O-U).
