The University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire has been recognized among the best universities in the country for quality, affordability, and student outcomes in Money’s 2024 Best Colleges in America rankings. Money evaluated over 2,400 four-year public and private nonprofit colleges nationwide, with 745 schools meeting the initial screening requirements for further examination.

UW-Eau Claire received a 3.5-star rating out of five stars after Money analyzed factors such as graduation rates, cost of attendance, financial aid, and alumni salaries. The university has also been listed in numerous top college rankings over the past year, including U.S. News & World Report, Wall Street Journal, Princeton Review, Forbes, and Campus Pride Index.

Additionally, UW-Eau Claire's clinic has been running a summer program for 15 years that assesses reading skills for children in grades 1-8 and delivers evidence-based interventions. For the second consecutive year, the university is offering five one-time $2,000 scholarships to first-year students for the 2024-25 academic year.

Both UW-Eau Claire campuses have released their spring 2024 dean’s list. "Please join us in congratulating these hardworking students," stated a university representative.
