UND’s online psychology program ranked third in nation

UND’s online psychology program placed third in EDsmart’s ranking of the best online psychology degrees for 2019.

High student retention and graduation rates, as well as an affordable price, led to UND’s high ranking.

EDsmart, a national publisher of college resources and rankings, lauded UND’s psychology department for its academic comprehensiveness.

Using data from the National Center for Education Statistics and Payscale, an ROI calculator for college degrees, EDsmart analyzed degree affordability, academic quality and student outcomes in order to assemble its rankings.

The recognition from EDsmart is the latest accolade for UND’s psychology program. Earlier this year, the online bachelor’s in psychology placed 15th in Best College Reviews’ rankings for 2019.
