Towson University has been named one of the Top 50 Best Value Public Colleges by Princeton Review, as reported in USA Today. The Princeton Review, one of America’s most widely-known education services and test-prep companies, has teamed up with USA TODAY, the nation’s most widely-read newspaper, to present The Princeton’s Review’s 100 “Best Value Colleges for 2009.”
The “Best Value” colleges list, reported in today’s USA TODAY and on {PrincetonReview.com/bestvaluecolleges} and {BestValueColleges.usatoday.com} features 50 public and 50 private colleges and universities. The Princeton Review selected these institutions as its “best value” choices for 2009 based on its surveys of administrators and students at more than 650 public and private colleges and universities. The selection criteria covered more than 30 factors in three areas: academics, costs of attendance, and financial aid, using the most recently reported data from each institution for its 2007-08 academic year.
