Engineering historically has been a male-dominated field.  The Society of Women Engineers estimates 20% of all engineers are female - and Webb's numbers are reflective of this percentage.  While the stats show my fellow female classmates and I are a minority at Webb, it certainly hasn't been a hindrance to our Webb career. more... 

Webb Institute shows up fourth on CNNMoney.com's posting of "12 Great Bargain Colleges."  Culled from The Best 373 Colleges by The Princeton Review, all the institutions posted by money.cnn.com on November 10 charge tuition and fees under $20,000, and the first four are noted as completely tuition-free.  As the header paragraph notes, "College costs are soaring, but you can still get quality educations without breaking the bank."

The article on Webb notes  that students need to be focused and to study hard - features of which all alumni and students are well aware.  Other points noted were the accessibility of the professors, 100% job placement for graduates, and the beautiful Long Island Sound setting.

Only two other engineering-based colleges are included in the top twelve bargains - The Cooper Union (also tuition-free) and Tuskegee University ($16,750 per year).

As noted in January 2010, The Princeton Review selected its "Best Value" choices for 2010 based on surveys of administrators and students at more than 650 public and private colleges and universities.   The selection criteria covered more than 30 factors in three areas: academics, costs of attendance, and financial aid, using the most recently reported data from each institution for its 2008-09 academic year.
