[quote=Anonymous]A lot of these statistics are a bit misleading. The colleges like NEU and Carnegie Mellon that emphasize STEM majors will show higher earnings. Obviously the CS and engineering graduates will be more highly compensated. NEU's has a great business school, and with its coop program, of course its graduates will have higher paying jobs. This of course can drive selectivity. But look at William and Mary. It has an acceptance rate of 33%. But the great majority of majors are in non-STEM fields like psychology, government, history, English etc. I guarantee if you accounted just for W&M's computer science or business applicants, you would have a much lower admission rate, and much higher SAT scores.
