SUNY Fredonia was selected by Kiplinger’s Personal Finance Magazine as one of the 100 best values in public higher education in the nation.
Fredonia was one of 11 State University of New York campuses named to the list.
Kiplinger's determined its rankings based on data provided by more than 500 public four-year colleges and universities. Schools on the list were ranked according to academic quality, cost and financial aid. Kiplinger's noted that the schools on the list "are noteworthy for their combination of top-flight academics and affordable costs."
President Dennis L. Hefner noted, "SUNY Fredonia is proud to again be named by Kiplinger’s as a great educational value. Our terrific students, outstanding academic programs, exceptional graduation rate, and devoted faculty and staff combine to make Fredonia one of the best universities in the nation.”
