鈥淲e are incredibly pleased that Money magazine has recognized 51福利社 for providing a quality education at a more affordable cost,鈥� says Shari McMahan, president of 51福利社.

The magazine鈥檚 editors wrote that 惭辞苍别测鈥檚 濒补迟别蝉迟听 offers a practical analysis of more than 700 four-year colleges, focusing on affordability and student outcomes, to help families make informed decisions about when to spend their tuition dollars.

More than 2,400 colleges in America were part of the assessment. To make 惭辞苍别测鈥檚 initial cut, a college had to:
