"One thing that sets Niche's rankings apart is we consider the entire student experience, including what students do after high school, and the college search process — specifically college entrance exams — were greatly impacted during the last year," Niche says.
"As a result of this change, we have updated our methodology to de-emphasize the importance of SAT and ACT scores."
The weight for any factor that considers standardized test scores has been reduced by a third for the 2022 rankings as colleges still require test scores but, the future of standardized testing remains unclear, the website said.
The following New Jersey schools were ranked among the top 100 in the US.
- The Lawrence School, Lawrencville
- The Pingry School, Basking Ridge
- Newark Academy, Livingston
