The school is rated at #3 for best deal for a college or university by Princeton review. New College is often very generous with financial aid, and being a public school, the price for what is offered is fantastic. The professors are experts in their craft, and truly enjoy what they do.

You probably can't find a better place to learn. They encourage taking many different types of classes and independent study. You write and defend a thesis all before you get into graduate school. This is a college that can show graduate college that you can do things on your own. Not just have a degree but have skills and knowledge that you crafted yourself.

While dorming is a little expensive, the tuition itself is VERY cheap considering the incredibly specialized education you're getting and the amount of personal attention students get. It's a great option and a perfect alternative for a high-ranking but expensive private liberal arts school.

New College is a liberal liberal arts college. We made Glen Beck's #2 choice for Most Dangerous College in America. There is very little diversity on campus, but the administration is trying to improve that. There is a strong community feel here that many students are proud of.

THis school is in the top top top for best value. Seriously I am surprised how this school is so unknown. The research opportunites are endless for students. With independent research projects for the entire month of January and open access to professors and equipment, its like graduate level experience. No student will get this treatment at a large university. Remember that each class holds about 200 kids and the largest class you will have is about 50, for a first year intro course. Other than that, most courses are about 10 students.
