Nationally, Forbes ranks WashU at #36 on a list of 50 schools dominated by universities located on the east and west coasts. MethodologyThe FORBES Top Colleges ranking has always placed its focus solely on the direct benefits a college or university provides its students. Favoring output over input, Forbes eschews common metrics like acceptance rate, endowment and freshmen SAT scores &＃8211; numbers that say far more about a school&＃8217;s &＃8220;prestige&＃8221; than its actual effectiveness &＃8211; and instead favors variables like alumni salary, graduation rate and student satisfaction. The ROI-centric logic behind this year&＃8217;s ranking is no different, but part of the methodology and some of the data sources have been reexamined and revamped to better align this list with what FORBES values most: entrepreneurship, success, impact and the consumer experience. &＃8220;Before you become a college student, you need to think like a graduate. Our goal is to showcase the colleges and universities that deliver the best return on your education investment dollars: low student debt, on-time graduation, quality academics, high earning potential and career success,&＃8221; said Caroline Howard, Digital Managing Editor, Forbes Media.
