Top Animation Programs in Arizona

Each year, organizations such as U.S. News & World Report, Princeton Review, Forbes, and others release a list of the nation’s best schools. The lists are based on everything from graduation and retention rates to student selectivity. Because these organizations are considered the authority on the best schools, hundreds of “top schools” lists have cropped up. The people behind these lists, typically students, alums, bloggers, and small publishers, focus on a variety of other factors. These factors are usually considered priority because they may affect the student’s pocketbook and maybe even his social life.

The system for determining which schools will make a “top schools” list may involve assessing a school’s cost, location, access to facilities, job placement services, types of clubs and organizations, access to recreation, student population, and more. That said, many “top” schools also end up on the list of best schools!
