http://new.time.com/money/best-colleges ... -colleges/
1 - Princeton
2 - Michigan
3 - Harvard
4 - Rice
5 - Cal and BYU (tied)
"Here's how MONEY determined which of the roughly 2,000 four-year U.S. colleges and universities deliver the most value—that is, a great education, at an affordable price, that prepares students for rewarding careers."
- "MONEY screened out schools with graduation rates below the median, financial difficulties, or fewer than 500 undergraduates."
- "The remaining 705 colleges were ranked on 24 factors in three categories: educational quality, affordability, and alumni success."
- "Plus, MONEY measured comparative value, by assessing how well students at each school did vs. what’s expected for students with similar economic and academic backgrounds, and the college’s mix of majors."
