The University of Scranton ranked 240th in the national list and 20th among Pennsylvania schools. “California can be found at the top notch for all private and non-private post high school education because our form is so much of a middle for imagination and modernization – and then we are included in it”.

Forbes puts the accent on “return on investment”, which a media release summed up as rating “schools on an ROI scale with points for low debt, high graduation rates, student satisfaction and career success”.

Forbes notes that it’s, like, smaller than your high school, with a “population” of 1,610.

Pomona College has ascended through the ranks rapidly in recent years.

The magazine’s top 10 is rounded out by Williams College (2), Stanford (3), Princeton (4), Yale (5), Harvard (6), Swarthmore College (7), Brown (8), Amherst College (9) and MIT (10).

Of the 650 schools that made the entire list, 26 are from Massachusetts. L.A.’s big hitters, Caltech (33),.UCLA (45) and USC (71) barely registered.
