MONEY NAMES VITERBO UNIVERSITY TO ITS LIST OF BEST COLLEGES IN AMERICA

LA CROSSE, Wis. – Money has named Viterbo University to its list of Best Colleges in America for 2025. This annual list showcases the country’s top educational values based on graduation rates, cost of attendance, financial aid, alumni salaries, and other criteria.

The list of Best Colleges is designed to help families make informed decisions about where to best spend their tuition dollars. There are more than 2,400 four-year, public and private universities in the U.S. and 732 made Money’s list. Schools selected are then ranked based on 25 factors in three weighted categories: quality of education (30 percent), affordability (40 percent) and outcomes (30 percent). Viterbo University received four of a possible five stars.

“Viterbo’s strength lies in our ability to provide students with an education that is personal, mission-driven, and focused on readiness for their next chapter,” said Erin Edlund, vice president for marketing, communications, and enrollment at Viterbo University. “We offer an affordable private college experience rooted in our Catholic, Franciscan values and a culture of care that makes a lasting difference in students’ lives. Being named one of America’s Best Colleges by Money affirms what our students, families, and alumni already know—Viterbo prepares graduates to succeed in achieving their goals and contribute meaningfully to their communities.”
