Money magazine names Texas State among best value universities in U.S.

 Texas State University has been named one of the "Best Colleges in America, Ranked by Value" for 2020 by Money magazine.

Money ranked Texas State No. 385 out of 739 schools included, ahead of such institutions as the University of Arkansas, Baylor University, Texas Christian University and University of North Texas.  

Money's rankings include only U.S. colleges that have sufficient reliable data to be analyzed. Colleges must have a graduation rate at or above the median for their institutional category (private, public or historically black college or university), or they must fall in the top 25% of the value-added graduation analysis. In other words, they must have unusually high graduation rates compared with schools that serve students with similar test scores and socioeconomic backgrounds. Other criteria mandated that the schools have at least 500 students and not be in financial distress.
