Dickinson uses several lists of peer institutions for comparisons. The President's list has been designated by the President and their staff as our peers for strategic planning purposes. The Dean's group is used for comparing faculty salaries and other issues related to faculty. The Applicant Overlap list contains institutions who are our top competitors for first-year applications.
