2021 Best Colleges in Ohio by Salary Score™
These are the top 25 colleges in Ohio with the best bachelor's degree Salary Score. Salary Score indicates whether degrees from one college may lead to better financial outcomes for graduates than the same degrees at other colleges. We calculated these scores by comparing the median alumni income in the first year after graduation from each program at a school to the salaries for the same program at other schools. It's helpful to keep in mind that the cost of living differs in each state, so salaries might vary to reflect this. For example, Ohio has a below-average cost of living index, so alumni may have lower salaries in line with lower living expenses. Even so, 10 colleges in Ohio have a higher Salary Score than the median for all U.S. colleges.
