Academics, Siena in the News
Laura Graffeo ’18

Siena College has been recognized as one of MONEY’s Best Colleges For Your Money for 2017.

Families today are looking for standout schools that are a worthy investment.  In order to provide families with the best information to make that decision, MONEY compiled research and advice from the nation’s top experts on education quality, financing, and value to develop a new analysis of more than 700 of the nation’s best-performing colleges.

For this year’s expanded list, MONEY ranked the qualifying schools on several factors. Such factors include quality of education such as instructor and peer quality, affordability including debt and student loan repayment, and outcomes such as graduate earnings. Siena's alumni also had a chance to contribute. MONEY included job meaning as a factor, posing the question “Does your work make the world a better place?” Our 3,000 Saints leave not only with a deeper understanding of the world, but the tools needed to take an active and meaningful part in it.

The full methodology is available online.
