Arizona’s Mayo School of Medicine ranked Top 10
U.S. News & World Report released its 2020 “Best Graduate Schools” rankings on Tuesday, March 12. Featured in the “Top 10 Best Medical Schools” once again is Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine. The school is ranked No. 9 in the national rankings, coming in at a three-way tie with Cornell University and New 
York University medical schools. Fredric Meyer, M.D., Waugh Executive Dean for Education, Mayo Clinic, says these rankings can be a bit of a roller coaster and notes that school leaders anticipated a possible minor drop in rankings when they became aware that U.S. News & World Report once again was changing its ranking methodologies. Dr. Meyer is also dean of Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine. “To be included as one of the top schools in the country is a real testament to the tremendous educational efforts of our faculty, students and staff,” says Dr. Meyer. “It also recognizes the strong bonds between Practice, Research and Education at Mayo Clinic and how we work together to develop the workforce of the future.”
