Huntington University earns kudos from magazine

Huntington University was ranked as one of Money magazine’s “Best Colleges for Your Money 2017-2018.”

Out of 711 public and private schools in the United States that made the list, Huntington ranked 255th. HU also ranked 39th out of 118 Midwestern schools on the list and ninth out of 21 Indiana colleges.

Money ranks colleges based on three categories — quality of education, affordability and alumni success. Of those categories, each was broken down into specific factors for a total of 27 factors. They also added at least one “value-added” measure to each category, revealing a school’s performance after subtracting the impact of its average student’s test scores and percentage of low-income students.

To be ranked, a school had to have at least 500 undergraduate students and at least 150 full-time first-time undergraduate students.
