Great Value Colleges is a website to help students and families get the best possible education for the money through high-quality, researched-based articles and rankings based on publicly available information from reputable third-party sources.
The rankings are determined by using data collected from College Navigator regarding tuition, as well as program information gleaned directly from each institution’s official website. For more sizeable rankings, the methodology used to determine placement is based primarily on tuition but also considers things like program flexibility, customization within the degree program both in content and format, and an overall “wow” factor which highlights each program’s unique offerings and sets it apart from the pack. For programs that have limited online availability, the website ranks institutions based solely on tuition costs.
