在美高留学申请里，选校是至关重要的一环，往往让很多学生家长无从下手。这时很多家长都会把各大美高机构排名拿来作为选校的重要参考依据，但是面对美国市面上有众多排名机构该如何选择呢？
美高排名都有哪些？
Niche被称为美国高中版大众点评，不仅有来自美国教育部等官方机构的数据统计，还有来自学生和家长的真实反馈。
Boardingschool Review只针对全美 300 余所私立寄宿高中进行排名和分等级的寄宿学校评论。
Finding School是中国家长使用最多的排名和查找学校信息的网站。
PrepReview专门针对常春藤大学和“哈耶普斯麻”录取率所发布的收费排名网站。
还有帮助在同一州内比较多家学校和学区而设的评分排名网站 GreatSchool 和 US NEWS 等。
美高排名的评估逻辑
因为美高对平均分和美本走向等数据并没有统一的计算公式，所以不同美高在统计数据时都有自己的评估逻辑和考量角度。同意每个排名机构都有不同的排名角度，其中包括SAT平成成绩排名、AP课程数量排名、校友基金排名和美本走向排名等等。
各大美高机构排名
1.FindingSchool
FindingSchool 主要针对国内家长，排名靠前的都是当下在中国非常热门的学校，所以排名的打分权重也比较符合中国家长的想法。排名权重依次是升学维度（30%），学术维度（24%），课外活动（16%）、用户点评（13%）、中国学生管理（10%）和社区地理（7%）。FindingSchool 有一定的参考价值，更适用于新手，去认识美高都有哪些学校，帮助家长做初步筛选。
2.Niche
Niche 大部分数据收集很准确，很多都来自美国教育部和NCES等部门。榜单还会按照学校的STEM、Arts等单项排名，数据都来源于各大比赛，数据客观真实。Niche的另外一部分数据来源于美国当地家长的真实点评，因此它还被大家戏称为美国高中版的大众点评。2023Niche美国私立高中排名指标权重包括SAT/ACT总分：占权重20.1%；顶尖大学成绩：占权重28.5%；4年制大学升学率：占权重16.9%；学生文化和多样性等级占权重11.3%；家长/学生问卷：占权重11.3%和学生和教师比：占权重11.3%。建议大家可以多关注 Niche上对于学校强项的排名，比如艺术、体育等。
3.Boarding School Review
在选择寄宿制私立高中时，Boardingschool Review排名经常被引用，它对 300 余所寄宿制高中进行统计分析。它不设学校综合排名榜，而是按照在校生人数、寄宿学生比例、国际学生比例、学费水平、获得资助的学生比例、平均课堂人数、师生人数比例、持有最高学历的教师人数占比、捐赠规模、录取难度、课外活动、体育项目、AP等高级课程开设数量、SAT平均成绩、SSAT平均成绩以及学校历史等十余项指标分别发布榜单。它的统计结果会把学校分为不同等级，同一等级的学校按首字母排列，不进行等级内排名。
4.PrepReview
美国高中毕业生的走向也是一项对学校进行评估的关键指标，PrepReview排名就是专门针对常青藤大学入学率和HYMPS(及哈佛、耶鲁、麻省理工、普林斯顿和斯坦福五所顶级大学)录取率所发布的榜单。它每年会按照学校类别公布前 30 名寄宿制高中榜单、前30 名走读高中榜单和前 50 名私立高中综合榜单排名依据为学校近五年来录取至最顶尖大学的学生比例情况。
