BuzzFeed crunched the numbers — check out our matrix to find out which colleges provide the best bang for your buck. See where graduates get the highest-paying jobs for the smallest investment in tuition.
BuzzFeed plotted tuition rates and average starting salaries from PayScale to come up with our best value colleges list. We only looked at out-of-state tuition rates for public schools.
The top-right corner is the place to be, and the bottom-left is the other end of the spectrum. The nine regions are colored accordingly — from the highly desirable green to the sickly looking yellow.
We then weighted both ranks equally and tallied them up for our top 10.
10. WPI (Worcester Polytechnic Institute)
WPI comes in at No. 10 on our list. A bit expensive to attend but it's well worth it since WPI graduates have some of the highest starting salaries in the country.
