Harvard University received yet another accolade, but this time the honor went to the top-ranked university’s Web site. Harvard.edu was the most visited spot among university sites for the week ending Aug. 12, according to Milpitas, Calif.-based Nielsen NetRatings.

Harvard’s site saw 244,000 visitors log on the week of Aug. 12, compared to 139,000 the week before, a 76 percent jump in traffic*. The reason? As summer comes to a close and vacationing high-school grads begin metamorphosing into university freshman, they become eager to check out their new academic digs.
