US colleges by state

Pick a state to compare its colleges side by side — net price, graduation rate, median graduate earnings and our ROI signal. We track 167 major US colleges across 45 states, all from the official U.S. Dept. of Education College Scorecard. In-state students usually pay far less than out-of-state, so a strong in-state public option is often a family's best-value choice.
