Draper, UT -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/28/2019 -- EDsmart.org just released its ranking of the top Nebraska colleges with online programs. Using data from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), EDsmart weighed several factors regarding affordability, academic quality and student satisfaction. Armed with this information, prospective students in Nebraska can confidently choose which online school offers them the best path toward affordably reaching their academic and career goals.

"As online college classes 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 Nebraska rankings allow students to compare accredited programs and find those that best fit their education interests and career goals," said EDsmart's spokesperson.
