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 Dutch Students in the Far Western US Region ranking is part of that endeavor.
After analyzing 18 schools in the Far Western US Region , we came up with our list of those that offered the best educational experiences for Dutch students in the Far Western US Region. To come up with this ranking, we look at a number of factors that are all objective measurements.

One Size Does Not Fit All
We know that one set of rankings doesn't always help you determine the best school for you, so we've created the ability to narrow your list by location as well as alternative rankings that prioritize different factors such as those of importance to online students or returning adults or those who value diversity and overall quality.
You can create your own custom comparison that focuses on the factors most important to you using our tool, College Combat. Test it out by comparing your favorite schools against others you are considering, or bookmark the tool so you can experiment with it later.
