Ranked 14th by fall 2011 enrollment, the list places Dade Medical among well-known institutions like Miami Dade College, Florida International University, Broward College and the University of Miami.
"We are extremely honored to be included in this year's edition and congratulate all the other schools on the achievement," says Dade Medical College President & CEO Ernesto Perez.
