Top 20 Universities in United

    Top 20 Universities in United                                                                                                                                   Thousands of people are turning to education to give them the boost they need in the workforce. While many of these individuals are seeking new certifications or training classes in small community colleges, those who are heading off to a university as undergraduates are looking at a bleak reality. College costs are rising, and job prospects are still depressed. In our current economic climate, the best value comes from schools where you’ll be courted by companies upon graduation.
Of course, these schools often come with high price tags. However, with the right collection of scholarships and grants, these top schools are the greatest value – your degree will be your ticket into a career, even with millions out of work in the United States. To rank the top twenty universities in the United States, I considered the annual tuition that is currently available online as well as an index created by QS Top Universities which includes scores for how favorably employers view the schools. The more employers like a university in regards to graduates and abilities, the higher the employer score.
