HILLSBOROUGH, N.C., March 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- College Consensus, a unique college ratings website that aggregates publisher rankings and student reviews, has published its ranking of the 100 Best Value Colleges & Universities for 2022.

Tuition has outpaced both inflation and financial aid, and 70% of college students say that finances played a role in their college decision. To afford college, many students find themselves taking out hefty student loans that require a lifetime of repayment.

Thankfully, a number of colleges and universities are working to increase their affordability, providing great educational value at low tuition rates. The Top 100 Best Value Colleges & Universities offer students the chance to graduate with an impressive degree in their hand and money in their wallet.

To determine The 50 Best Value Online Colleges we combined the results of the most respected college ranking systems with the averaged ratings of thousands of real student reviews from around the web to find the best schools. We then ranked these schools by affordability based on out-of-state tuition and fees as listed by the National Center for Education Statistics.

The top 10 Best Value Colleges & Universities for 2022 are:

Brigham Young University
Western Carolina University
Ferris State University
