How this list is ordered
Schools first had to sit at or above the 60th percentile on Azimuth's mobility pillar; those that qualified are ordered by the school's median earnings of all students ten years after entry, highest first, as set out on Azimuth's methodology page. The ordering metric is the median earnings of all federally aided students at the institution, measured ten years after entry among those working and not enrolled. The list does not measure earnings in any one major or teaching quality. Babson College leads with $123,938, and the gap to second-ranked Bentley University is $2,979.
