Draper, UT -- (SBWire) -- 08/01/2019 --EDsmart's ranking of the best online colleges in New York is the most comprehensive and well-rounded to date. The ranking includes only fully accredited schools. Rankings are based primarily on affordability, while also considering factors such as graduation and retention rates according to NCES College Navigator reporting.

"As online college classes become more prevalent, it is important to recognize the colleges and universities that go above and beyond," said Tyson Stevens, managing editor of EDsmart. "Our goal is to highlight these schools and their commitment to higher education."

"The Best Online Colleges in New York rankings allow students to compare accredited programs and find those that best fit their education interests and career goals," said EDsmart's spokesperson.
