How We Rank Schools

Every school list on this site is ordered by the BOC Score, computed from the most recent school-level data published by the U.S. Department of Education (College Scorecard and IPEDS).

  • Average net price (lower is better) 20%
  • Retention rate 15%
  • Fully online availability 10%
