That seems slantwise.
Leah Remini will graduate from NYU. Will they count her salary? She’s already won an Emmy.
As another poster suggested, what does this mean if they accept mostly rich people? If that’s the case, my kid could become wealthy from anywhere graduating from school with more advantages due to wealth.
As for this list: There would just be more rich kids at these schools who remain that way…

NYU has the #1 real estate studies program plus a highly ranked performing arts school.
Lay off it with the real estates studies program shilling. No one cares about it, and it's not that good.
Huh?
Was trying to make a connection as to why NYU ranks high in ROI (in another list they are #5). I did not attend NYU and neither did oldest DC who attended a top school on this list. Youngest DC considering NYU among many schools, but is way off making a decision.
However NYU is a very popular option at both my DC’s private schools in DC. They hold the most real estate of any university in the US and in the most expensive city.
NYU Grads I have met loved it. On the other hand, I have met quite a few people who attended schools that are much higher ranked who were not happy with their undergrad experiences (Harvard, Yale, Berkeley) . I are just as much about my DC’s mental health and happiness as future earnings.
Columbia owns more properties than NYU. However, NYU is located in the more desirable lower manhattan. NYU students are paying for real estate.

But, for the right students, UM has pretty good academics and is spectacular for helping students perfect golfing, tennis, boating, football appreciation and people skills.
If you want a wealthy kid, a so so bachelor’s degree plus a good golf game, an attractive face, a pleasing disposition and the ability to navigate a fraternity party beat the hell out of having a National Merit scholarship and a law degree without the good golf game and the ability to navigate the fraternity party.
One thing that’s shocking to me about this forum is the parents who are obsessed with education ROI but who apparently haven’t taught their kids to play golf or tennis, or to sail, and who haven’t thought at all about rush. If your kids can’t play golf, sail or play tennis, and they aren’t social enough to handle a fraternity party, you’ve pretty much slammed the door on them becoming truly wealthy through any route other than a dot-com miracle.
This is 10000% complete and utter bollocks. You sound like a geriatric who has no idea how the world works.
