Grad School Hub used the National Center for Education Statistics' College Navigator database to help it form the rankings.
"Our staff evaluated each college's quality by double checking regional and national accreditation statuses with the Council on Higher Education Accreditation. Every chosen school had to feature at least one recognition from respected ranking publications like Washington Monthly or U.S. News & World Report," according to the article announcing the rankings. "Our final step was ordering the prospective online universities from highest to lowest average graduate tuition in-state."
