Siena Heights tied for 30th among all public and private institutions, sixth highest ranked private institution, and the first Catholic institution to make an appearance on the list. 

In addition, Siena Heights University was ranked 26th in the nation in the Best Online Bachelor’s Program for Veterans category. That was also the highest ranking by a Michigan college or university in that category.
