ONEONTA, N.Y. -- Kiplinger's magazine has named the SUNY
College at Oneonta to its 2008
Kiplinger 100 Best Values in Public Colleges, which was released in
the February 2008 issue of the magazine. This marks the second consecutive
appearance by SUNY-Oneonta in Kiplinger's nationwide rankings of the
top 100 public colleges and universities that are "noteworthy for their
combination of top-flight academics and affordable costs." The College at
Oneonta is ranked 75th in 2008 and was ranked 98th in 2007.
Using national data provided by Peterson's/Nelnet, Kiplinger's
selects colleges and universities based on measures of academic quality
including freshman SAT scores, admission rates, and retention and graduation
rates. The magazine then ranks the colleges and universities based on costs
and financial aid.
Kiplinger's is the second magazine to give national recognition to
the College at Oneonta in recent months. In August, U.S. News and World
Report ranked the College in the top tier of
America's Best Colleges 2008.
