Where are you getting 53%? The school reported 44% for 2010 and it stayed the same for the last couple of years. Click the link above.
 
4 yr. graduation rate shows different student bodies, not caliber of students. The caliber is the same, same # of top 10%, same average SAT scores. The difference is this: tuition. That grad rate for UB was scored during years in which the tuition was sub $5k. UConn's was double that in the same period. UConn has more affluent students. UB has a lot of working students. Look at UB's 5-year grad rate. It jumps to 72% from 47%. UConn's jumps to 79%. As for USNWR, I think I've made my feelings about it clear in the past.
 
UB is trying to address the fact that so many students work to put themselves through school: [url]http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/SUNY-Buffalo-Four-Year-Degree-Guarantee-Finish-in-Four-Free-145485945.html[/url]
