According to recent rankings compiled by Engagement Labs, Ashford University is the third-best in the nation when it comes to engagement in social media performance via Facebook, coming in just after Baylor University and Texas A&M.

 The rankings placed Ashford at the top of the list for schools evaluated in the Responsiveness on Facebook category, which rated how well universities prioritized responding to students and allowing them to participate in two-way communication.

Engagement Labs, which create eValue Analytics, looked at a wide range of institutions for its rankings, including Ivy League schools, for-profit schools, and Big Ten, Big 12, ACC, Pac-12 and SEC schools. The organization used eValue and Engagement scores earned by each college or university to create its rankings.
