EDsmart Announces 2023 Best Colleges and Universities in California

EDsmart.org, a nationally recognized publisher of college resources and independent rankings, has released the 2023 edition of the Best Colleges and Universities in California to help prospective students and their families research the top educational institutions in California.

EDsmart’s ranking of the Best Colleges and Universities in California is the most comprehensive and well-rounded. The ranking includes only fully accredited schools. Rankings are based on four data points in four categories: affordability, student satisfaction, academic quality, and salary after attending, according to data from the U.S. Department of Education.

“It is important to recognize the colleges and universities that go above and beyond,” said Tyson Stevens, managing editor of EDsmart. “Our goal is to highlight these schools and their commitment to higher education.”

“The Best Colleges and Universities in California ranking allows students to compare accredited programs and find those that best fit their education interests and career goals,” said EDsmart’s spokesperson. “Beyond providing affordable education, a college is not successful if it does not graduate its students, which is why EDsmart rankings place a high value on outcomes, including graduation and retention rates, and post-graduation earnings.”

The EDsmart 2023 ranking for the Best Colleges and Universities in California ranks California State University-Fullerton #1 as the best college in California with California State University-Long Beach and Pepperdine University following.
