BLOOMINGTON, Ill. – Illinois Wesleyan University remains among the nation’s best values in private higher education, ranked No. 32 among Kiplinger’s Personal Finance 100 Best Values in Private Colleges for 2010-11, to appear in the magazine’s December issue on newsstands Nov. 9.
Kiplinger’s credits these institutions with providing a high-quality education at an affordable price – often with generous financial aid.
Schools on the Kiplinger list were ranked by academic quality and the net price students pay to attend, with quality accounting for two-thirds of the total. Kiplinger’s divides the schools into two categories: liberal arts colleges like Illinois Wesleyan that focus on undergraduates, and universities that include graduate students.
