Pacific University Named a "Best Bang for the Buck" by Washington Monthly

Pacific University has been named a "Best Bang for the Buck - West" institution by Washington Monthly in its 2018 College Guide & Rankings.

The public affairs magazine's self-proclaimed "Different Kind of College Ranking" ranks four-year colleges and universities using methodologies that measure an institution's "contribution to the public good" in three broad categories: social mobility, research and service.

The Best Bang for the Buck category criteria centers on an institution's commitment to help non-wealthy students attain marketable degrees at affordable prices.
