[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The new ‘Degree Choices’ rankings that try to assess the ‘economic value’ of different colleges’ degrees (earnings boost, time required to ‘pay off’ or offset tuition cost etc) ranks IU as #55 national university in the country and JMU as #127. JMU is a fine school (and a great in-state option) and many students are happy there, but IU is in a different league. https://www.degreechoices.com/best-colleges/rankings/national-universities/ [/quote] Does this control for popularity of certain majors that may not lead to higher earnings? This ranking may not be helpful in determining quality of education because a college can be outstanding in say education, but that will not fare well in "value" assessments. [/quote]
