How we rank
Maclean’s marks the schools the same way your intro psych professor will mark you. We assess universities on several key skills and then weigh them to find out who is top of the class.

Maclean’s places universities into one of three categories to recognize the differences in levels of research funding, the diversity of offerings, and the range of graduate and professional programs.
Medical Doctoral universities offer a broad range of Ph.D. programs and research; all institutions in this category have medical schools.
