Top Feeder Rankings (From Publication)

Per the site College Transitions, they have a page on "Top Feeder Rankings (adjusted for undergraduate enrollment)."

I would argue that the adjustment is necessary, as 50 kids from a 1,000 person liberal arts college going to Harvard is much more impressive than 50 kids from a 40,000 person public university. The ranking seems to line up with a former WSJ "Top Feeder Schools" ranking. No surprise to see the same old suspects (Ivy League, NESCAC, etc.). I think the average person might be surprised that small LACs lead to great outcomes as well.
