Top Public Schools Methodology
Public colleges and universities are typically operated under the supervision of state governments and are funded, in part, by tax dollars and subsidies from the state. As a result, these universities often offer free or discounted tuition to students considered residents of the state. Public schools run the gamut from small liberal arts colleges to large research institutions. These are the highest ranked public colleges and universities in the 2013 Best Colleges rankings, listed according to their ranking category.
These rankings are split into 4 regions: North, South, Midwest, and West.
