The first step of determing the value of a school in our Best Bachelor's Degree Colleges for the Money (Income $30-$48k) in New Hampshire ranking is to look at the school's average net price for students with families that make $30-$48k a year. The net price is the sum of tuition, fees, and room and board minus any financial aid awarded to the student.
