For the second consecutive year, Chatfield College in St. Martin (Brown County) and Cincinnati, OH has been designated a Best Value School by University Research & Review, a company dedicated to improving the process of how a student selects a post-secondary school.

The Best Value award committee selected Chatfield from the nearly 8,000 eligible postsecondary schools throughout the U.S. Chatfield College was chosen by the committee because it passed rigorous standards, including a combination of cost, accreditation, variety and quality of school programs, and student satisfaction with the institution.

The award committee is made up of former university presidents, CEOs, provosts and professors. Eligible schools must be nominated by a third-party to be considered for the Best Value School designation and then undergo a rigorous review process by the committee to be selected. Award recipients must re-qualify every year.

“It is our pleasure to once again award the Best Value School designation to Chatfield College,” said University Research & Review Founder Joseph Schmoke. “Chatfield continues to merit recognition for the value and satisfaction it brings to its students.”

“We are thrilled to receive the Best Value School designation for the second year in a row,” said John P. Tafaro, Chatfield College President. “Chatfield continually strives to provide the best value to our students and the community, and it is an honor to be chosen from among so many eligible schools to receive the award again this year.”

Chatfield College is a private, Catholic, liberal arts college offering the Associate of Arts degree in St. Martin and Cincinnati. Chatfield is an open enrollment college and is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission.

Prospective students need only to have a High School Diploma or GED to attend and will be guided individually through the enrollment and Financial Aid application process.
