Delta State is one of the best bang-for-your-buck universities in the American South, according to a new report.
As part of U.S. News & World Report’s list of “2024 Best Value Regional Universities – South,” Delta State came in at No. 13. The publication evaluated the educational value of schools in the category based on a variety of factors including student engagement, faculty credentials, and services and technologies.
Dr. Dan Ennis, president of Delta State, believes the honor is a nod to the university’s work in making education affordable for everyone.
“One of DSU’s greatest strengths is our value to the student, and we make an elite, world-class education accessible to all income ranges,” Ennis said. “Out-of-state and international students pay the same tuition as in-state students do, and we offer a range of programs that you might not expect from a small, regional university.”
Delta State placed in a handful of other categories published by U.S. News, including No. 23 in “Top Public Universities in the South,” No. 20 in “Best Colleges in the South for Veterans,” and No. 55 in “Best Regional Universities – South.”
