Presenting the 20 best universities that will give you a great return on your investment.
Education Is An Investment
Choosing the right college has always been an important decision in many young people’s lives, with the number of options constantly growing and the price of education following suit. The decision becomes even more pronounced in a competitive job market like ours, even spurring some colleges to arbitrarily inflate grades just to give their students a leg up. Those who attended an American college might say the name of the institution means less than what a student does while he or she is there. However, reputation is a factor leading to professional success after graduation. PayScale.com, a site that collects and compares salary information across industries, recently compared colleges by their return-on-investment (ROI), or the median salary they can expect to earn 30 years after graduation, compared with the amount spent on tuition and living costs for the four years of education.
