Lebanon Valley College is a private university in Annville, Pennsylvania.

This small Pennsylvania college offers a genuinely accessible path — a 75% acceptance rate, relatively manageable median debt of $21,000, and a mid-range net price of $28,132/year — making it worth considering for students who want a close-knit campus without taking on crushing loans. The 73% graduation rate and 83% freshman retention are decent but not exceptional, so self-motivated students who thrive with personal attention will get more out of it than those who need a high-energy environment to stay engaged. The median earnings of $48,500 at 10 years out are modest, so students should think carefully about ROI and make sure their intended major aligns with stronger career outcomes.
