In today’s world, getting an Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree is not enough to set a young adult on the right path to a successful professional life after 15-plus years in the Education System.
Preparing students for future Professional and Financial success should be the goal of Colleges and Universities. However, some educational institutions are more interested in making money than providing the services expected of them by parents and young adults.
The Wall Street Journal and researchers at College Pulse collaborated on a new study to find out which Colleges and Universities set up their graduates for the most future financial and professional success.
As a result, they created a ranking of the Best Colleges In The United States and scored every Educational institution on a scale of 1 to 100 based on the following criteria:
-Students’ Overall Satisfaction and Experience
-Learning Environment on Campus
-Best Salaries for Recent Graduates
-Best Value of Education
-Graduates’ Social Mobility
