One hundred percent of Dominican undergraduate students receive some form of financial aid to complete their education. Overall, U.S. News and World Report ranked Dominican #20 among Best Regional Universities, which includes more than 160 colleges and universities in the Midwest. Within the state of Illinois, Dominican is ranked #3. In the category of Social Mobility, which measures a school’s commitment to moving economically disadvantaged students up the economic ladder, Dominican is #1 in Illinois for the third consecutive year and #3 in the Midwest. The category ranks how well schools enroll and graduate students who receive federal Pell Grants compared to the graduation rate of students who do not receive these grants. Enhancing the social mobility of its students has been an objective for the university throughout its 123-year history. In Best Undergraduate Teaching, Dominican ranked #1 in Illinois and #7 in the Midwest. This ranking focuses on schools with faculty and administrators who are committed to high-quality teaching and is based upon a peer assessment survey.
