New College of Florida Again Rated a ‘Best Value’

An education-services company has ranked New College of Florida second in the nation for providing “best value” to its students. The Princeton Review’s 2014 ranking is based on data collected from schools and students from fall 2012 to fall 2013. The national education company rated 650 schools based on 30 factors, including financial aid, cost of attendance, admissions and academics. The Review then narrowed the schools to 150 — 75 public and 75 private. New College of Florida placed second among the chosen 75 U.S. public universities in the “best value” ranking. This marks the third time the school has placed second in this ranking, first winning the title in 2009 and then in 2011. New College of Florida ranked third in the same category in 2010, 2012 and 2013.
