Friday, January 25, 2019

OMAHA, Neb. – College of Saint Mary has been named one of the nation’s “Best Colleges for the Money,” according to College Factual. CSM is ranked 91st out of 1,510 colleges, placing them in the top 6% best value nationally.

CSM recently slashed tuition by 33 percent (equivalent to $10,000) and eliminated all student fees. The move was in accordance with the institution’s mission of providing access and affordability to all women who seek an education. As a result, students are borrowing less and following more direct—and cost-effective—paths to their careers.

College Factual’s objective is to put the power of college decision making back in the hands of students and parents by providing them with the tools to search for universities based on their individual interests and values. The “Best for the Money” ranking takes into account the annual cost of attendance, the average time students take to graduate, and the quality of education the school provides.

The full list of colleges and universities can be found at Collegefactual.com. Each institution selected does not pay for their selection or inclusion on the site.

College of Saint Mary now offers 35 majors, 10 varsity sports, 8 graduate programs, and a range of service and involvement opportunities. Students at CSM learn within an inclusive campus community in the heart of Omaha’s Aksarben Village.
