Information may not be reliable

EDsmart's ranking of the best online colleges in Minnesota is the most comprehensive and well-rounded to date. The ranking includes only fully accredited schools. Rankings are based on affordability, academic quality, student satisfaction and student outcomes according to data from the U.S. Department of Education.

"As online college courses become more prevalent, 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 Online Colleges in Minnesota 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 high value on outcomes, including graduation and retention rates."

The EDsmart 2020 Best Online Colleges in Minnesota ranking names the University of Minnesota-Morris #1 as the best online college in Minnesota with the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities and University of Minnesota-Crookston.
