Colorado College Rankings by Salary Score™
Salary and Debt by Major at Colorado College
We calculated a Salary Score for each of Colorado College's programs by comparing program-specific median alumni earnings to median alumni earnings for the same program across all schools that provide this data. This way, students can compare the relative salary strength of a specific major at Colorado College to the same major at other schools. A school's overall score by level is based on the school's by-program performance weighted by student enrollment in each program. Data is sourced from the December 2020 release of the U.S. Department of Education's College Scorecard and reflects median alumni debt upon graduation and median alumni earnings in the year after graduation for students who received federal financial aid. Debt and salary numbers are shown rounded to the nearest $10.

Most Recent Reviews
It was a very disappointing academic experience. There was more emphasis on politics and extracurricular activities than on real education. The block plan is a joke. There is a high tolerance for bullying. This is definitely a school I should have avoided.
Colorado College was one of the best things that has ever happened to me. The campus is vibrant and teeming with intellectual students who care about learning in order to make social change. Professors are passionate and devote the entirety of their careers to their top-notch instruction. While the Block Plan is challenging, it enables you to immerse yourself in one class at a time and develop meaningful relationships with peers and professors alike. I highly recommend Colorado College.
