Our ranking of value is based on the quality of a program as defined in our per sticker price dollar.

The value is determined by how much quality your dollar buys.
In our regional and nationwide rankings, out-of-state tution and fees are used in our calculations. Average in-state tuition and fees are used for our statewide rankings.
