In its 2025 rankings, Money Magazine has (out of five), placing it in the top 15% nationally based on an analysis of all 2,400 four-year public and private nonprofit colleges. The ranking is based on a wide range of criteria including cost of attendance, graduation rates, strong financial aid support, low debt and alumni success.

Money’s analysis looked at all 2,400 four-year public and private nonprofit colleges in the country. To make the initial cut, a college had to: have at least 500 undergraduate or 150 first year students; have sufficient, reliable data to be analyzed; not be in financial distress and; have a graduation rate at or above the median for its institutional category (public, private or historically black college or university), or have a high “value-added” graduation rate (score in the top 25% of graduation rates after accounting for the student body).

For 2025 a total of 732 schools met these requirements, then were given their star rating based on 25 factors in three categories:

  • Quality of education (30%) – factors include graduation rates, peer quality, instructor access and Pell Grant recipient outcomes.
  • Affordability (40%) – factors include net price of a degree and student debt.
  • Outcomes (30%) – factors include earnings 10 years after college entry and college scorecard employment outcomes.

Data collection and analysis for the ratings were led by Money’s rankings partner, Witlytic.
