Personal finance website WalletHub has released its list for 2021 of 1,000 of the nation’s top-performing colleges and universities at the lowest possible costs to undergraduates and their families.

The list is based on 30 measures grouped into seven categories, such as admission rates, net costs and post-attendance median salary.

On average, tuition and room and board at a four-year college costs around $22,000 – $50,000 per year. It varies depending on the school’s public or private status and whether it is in-state.

On a list of public and private schools in Indiana, the University of Notre Dame is ranked No. 1, receiving a top ranking for admission rates, graduation rates, and post-school salaries. But the school got a low score for cost.

Top 10 Colleges & Universities in Indiana:

  1. The University of Notre Dame
  2. Purdue University-West Lafayette
  3. DePauw University
  4. Wabash College
  5. Earlham College 
  6. Hanover College
  7. Taylor University
  8. Indiana University-Bloomington
  9. University of Evansville
  10. Goshen College

WalletHub also created a national list. Notre Dame is No. 36, Purdue at No. 108, DePauw comes in at No. 112.
