WBZ Radio's Kim Tunnicliffe reports from Northeastern

The web site compiled the list with information from other web sites, as well as from the federal government.

Northeastern released a statement about their ranking. "It's hard to take seriously a ranking that miscounts our enrollment by more than 5,000 students. Fortunately, this ranking has not been taken seriously by our students or anyone else who knows Northeastern."

WBZ-TV's Kate Merrill reports.

Also on the list are Williams College at number 10, UMass at 44, and Hampshire College at 50.
