College Factual was founded, in part, to help students make the decision as to what would be the best school for them. Our Best Value Colleges for Canadian Students in Alaska ranking is part of that endeavor.
After analyzing 2 schools in Alaska, we came up with our list of those that offered the best educational experiences for Canadian students in Alaska.

We steer clear of subjective measures since they don't give a clear picture when determining how one school compares to another.

Customizing Your List
Since one ranking on its own is not enough to give you a complete understanding of your educational options, you can refine this list by location. We've also developed a number of other tools and rankings based on other factors. These other rankings highlight colleges that excel in other factors such as quality or diversity as well as schools that excel in serving different groups of students such as online students or returnings adults.
We've created a tool called College Combat that lets you create your own customized comparisons based on the factors that matter the most to you. If you're torn between two schools, you can use it to help you see how they stack up against one another. Bookmark it so you can compare any new schools that might interest you.
