U.S. News & World Report ranked Brown 15th among national universities in its 2011 edition (published in August 2010). Undergraduates make up a larger proportion of the student body at Brown than at any of the other Ivy League universities, leading some Brown administrators to question the fairness of the ranking in light of the University's focus on undergraduate education.[65] The same edition also ranked Brown 6th among national universities for undergraduate teaching,[66] and 6th in a high school guidance counselor ranking of which universities "offer the best education to their students."[67][68]
Internationally, in 2011 Brown ranked 49th in the Times Higher Education World University Rankings and the Academic Ranking of World Universities ranked Brown 65th. In 2008 QS World University Rankings placed Brown at 27th.[69][70] According to the 2005 paper Academic Ranking of World Universities – Methodologies and Problems by the rankers, Brown's PCP (performance per-capita) score is equal to that of Columbia University, at 32.1, or 28th in the world.[71]
Brown ranked 7th in the country (between Princeton and Columbia) in a study of high school seniors' revealed preferences for matriculation conducted by economists at Harvard, Wharton, and Boston University, and published in 2005 by the National Bureau of Economic Research.[72] The 2008 Center for College Affordability and Productivity (CCAP) ranked Brown 5th in the country among national universities."[73]

Brown ranked 5th in the country in Newsweek/The Daily Beast's "America's Brainiac Schools". The rankings are calculated based on the number of prestigious scholarships, adjusted for population size, won by students, including Rhodes Scholarships, Truman Scholarships, Marshall Scholarships, Gates Scholarships (since 2001), and the number of students receiving Fulbright scholarships (since 1993). Also factored in are scores on admissions tests, admission rates, and the proportion of students in the top 10% of their graduating high school class. The 4 schools besting Brown were, in order of rank, Yale University, Princeton University, Harvard University, and Stanford University.[81]
As it had in 2007 and 2010, the 2011 Princeton Review email poll of college students ranked Brown 1st in the country for "Happiest Students."[82] Brown is 3rd in the country (tied with Stanford) in the number of students awarded Fulbright grants, according to the October 2010 ranking compiled by the Chronicle of Higher Education.[83]
Graduate programs that ranked the top 10 in the 2010 US News & World Report graduate school rankings included applied mathematics at 5th[49] and growth economics at 8th.[61] Those that are ranked in the top 20 are history at 14th,[60] economics at 17th,[62] English at 13th,[59] engineering at 20th, mathematics at 14th,[50] and computer science at 20th.[50]
