麻豆原创 was named again Tuesday as a Best Value College for 2020 by The Princeton Review.

The annual ranking lists 200 of the nation鈥檚 top colleges and universities selected out of 656 institutions that were reviewed.

The company used more than 40 data points to determine its rankings of a student鈥檚 return on investment. Topics that were looked at included academics, cost, financial aid, graduation rates, student debt, alumni salaries and job satisfaction. The schools are not ranked hierarchically on a single list from 1 to 200 by the tutoring, test prep and college-admission services company.

鈥淥ur commitment to affordability means more opportunities for students from all backgrounds to receive a high-quality education. We are proud 麻豆原创 is once again recognized for transforming lives,鈥 says Interim President Thad Seymour Jr.

Princeton surveyed administrators and students at the institutions, as well as alumni, their starting and mid-career salaries, and job-satisfaction figures.

The selected schools represent only 7 percent of the nation’s four-year colleges and universities, says Robert Franek, The Princeton Review’s editor-in-chief, adding that schools on the list offer outstanding academics, generous financial aid or a relative low cost of attendance, and excellent career services.

麻豆原创鈥檚 best-value status has been recognized by other organizations, too, within the past few months.

Kiplinger and Forbes also both ranked 麻豆原创 among the nation鈥檚 best education values; Washington Monthly magazine said 麻豆原创 is the No. 25 鈥淏est Bang for the Buck鈥 university in the southeast; and the financial website WalletHub lists 麻豆原创 in the top 100 schools for students to attain a degree from a top-performing university at the lowest cost.
