The Princeton Review Tuesday is announcing its 2013 Best Value Colleges.

The University of Virginia leads among public schools, and William & Mary makes the top four.

Pennsylvania’s Swarthmore College leads among private schools.

The rankings weren’t based on sticker price, but rather a combination of cost, admissions and financial aid, USA TODAY reports.
