Absolutely not. Our rankings are completely independent and objective. Schools cannot pay for inclusion or higher rankings. We maintain strict editorial independence and our methodology is transparent and publicly available. Our revenue comes from premium subscription services, not from schools.

We clearly indicate data limitations and provide context for schools with limited historical information. Schools are encouraged to reach us proactively to provide data.
