The College of Charleston is among three South Carolina colleges and universities listed among the 100 Best Values in Public Colleges from Kiplinger magazine.
Kiplinger’s analysis used several factors to determine best value, including a combination of “academics and affordability.” For academics, Kiplinger looked at SAT scores, admission rates, student-faculty ratios and graduation rates. The magazine broke their rankings into two lists, according to best value for in-state tuition and for out-of-state tuition.
