Both UD and Miami were ranked in the 94th percentile of over 700 schools ranked by the National Council on Teacher Quality. The only Ohio school to rank above the UD and Miami was Ohio Wesleyan University, a private liberal arts college located in Delaware, Ohio.

The council evaluated each college’s program based on admission standards, subject-area preparation, requirements for courses on instructional methods, guidance on how to manage classrooms and whether programs provide and ensure practice opportunities.
