Hendrix among 2016 America’s Best Value Colleges

Hndrx_361CONWAY, Ark. (March 30, 2016) – Hendrix College recently appeared in Forbes’ 2016 America’s Best Value Colleges.

Hendrix ranked #233 overall and also ranked #174 in Private Colleges, #91 in Liberal Arts Universities, #42 in the South, and #90 in  Grateful Grads.

The College also earned a Forbes Financial Grade of “A-” and was listed as the best college in Arkansas in this state-by-state roll call based on the 2015 America’s Top Colleges rankings.

“It’s very affirming for Hendrix to be recognized for value, along with the quality and strength of our academic program and faculty, the opportunities for hands-on learning, and the success of our graduates after college,” said Hendrix President Bill Tsutsui. “From the level of financial assistance we offer to our four-year graduation rate that is twice the national average, Hendrix remains a great investment for students.”

Earlier this month, Hendrix announced the new Hendrix Four-Year Guarantee for first-time freshman students entering in fall 2016. If students meet the Hendrix Four-Year Guarantee conditions and still do not graduate in eight semesters, Hendrix will credit students the tuition for any remaining Hendrix courses needed to complete their degree.
