[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's another good list for ROI schools.

https://poetsandquantsforundergrads.com/news/the-u-s-colleges-with-the-highest-roi/[/quote]

Why do these scorecards never document outcomes.  How many were employed via on-site recruiting; how many have jobs 3mos out and 6mos out; what's the median income of graduates - 2yrs out, 10 yrs out, 15 yrs out; how many went on to graduate schools within five years of graduation; what is the acceptance rates of those who went to graduate schools for MBA/PhD/JD/MD.

Give us some real outcomes-based decision making for ROI.  [/quote]

+1 It would be great if this data was presented by profession. How many graduates are in each profession, how many matriculate to top firms, law schools, etc. Plus the other data you mentioned.

The data just isn't shared by many of these $90K/year non-ivy schools. Sorry but I'm not on board with paying that without the evidence.[/quote]

Some schools are actually brave enough to publish the NG median income. CMU for example[/quote]

however these data points are largely pointless unless you also correlate where the jobs are and cost of living.  For example: anyone who graduates from a Boston area school will likely have a much higher Salary across the board for all majors than someone who graduates form UNC.  Because their graduates often end up nearby and Boston has an extremely high cost of living.    [/quote]
