Listworthy: Georgetown University’s Top ROI Colleges in the U.S.

This Listworthy piece is brought to you, as the header suggests, by Georgetown University’s Center on Education and the Workforce. If you skipped ahead because you like lists (and the Listworthy segment), please do both of us a favor and start by reading the piece on this list (and ROI colleges generally) found earlier in this CKQ.

I am providing you with two rankings here: the top 20 ROI schools 10 years after graduation AND the top 20 ROI schools 40 years after graduation. Clearly, there are two very different pictures being painted here. What does it tell you?
