University of Montana Named a College "Best Buy"

The University of Montana was chosen to appear as one of 247 colleges and universities in the 9th edition of Barron’s “Best Buys in College Education.”

Inclusion in the volume is based on various criteria, including tuition rates and the results of questionnaires filled out by the dean of students and by students.

President George Dennison indicated his gratification about UM’s inclusion, since these listings make clear to potential students the value received for the value given.

“We try hard to earn the ‘best buy’ billing by emphasizing affordability and quality,” he said.

Colleges covered in the book range from publicly supported schools that are virtually tuition-free to moderately-priced ones that provide quality education at bargain prices.

Each entry in “Best Buys in College Education” features a data profile that gives information about campus setting, student-faculty ratio, freshman profile, tuition and fees, and room and board.
