Our ranking rewards making your students richer and not charging them through the nose for it and making sure that they graduate and ensuring that they're satisfied with the learning environment and the opportunity to mix with people from different backgrounds that the college provides.
We look at the median salaries of graduates 10 years after they enrol at the college, which is provided by the Department for Education's college scorecard.
And we factor in how that compares, A, to what you would expect those students to earn on the basis of their exam results before entering college and the cost of living in the state the college is based, regardless of which college they went to.
and B, the average net price of attending the college, including costs like tuitions and fees, room and board, books and supplies, and taking into account things like grants and scholarships.
But it isn't just measuring financial success.
That is a really important factor.
But we also do look at graduation rates, diversity, and the results of a huge student survey asking about the learning opportunities, learning facilities, and the career preparation that they're offered, and the extent to which they would recommend their college, and whether they would make the same choice again if they could start over.

And Princeton scores extremely well across the board on all of those factors.
So its graduates make a lot of money.
Its average net price is comparatively low.
Its graduation rate is the highest of any school in the ranking.
And it has a relatively diverse student body and faculty.
And its students rate the education they're getting highly.
Our ranking does not make any assumptions about what works in helping students succeed.
We just look at the outcomes that the students go on to, to understand which are doing the most to help their students to flourish.
So lots of the colleges have a STEM or business focus and do really well, but liberal arts colleges also hold their own.
25% of the overall ranking is on the basis of a gigantic survey that we conduct with College Pulse of current students and alumni who graduated within the last five years from each college.
So 20% of the score is purely on the basis of that, looking at the learning opportunities they receive, the learning facilities, the career preparation that they're offered.
and the extent to which they would recommend their college and whether they would make the same choice.
