How this list is ordered
Programs are ordered by the median earnings of their Mathematics graduates four years after completing, highest first. Only programs with a reported earnings cohort in the Northeast appear. The figure covers federally aided completers who were working and not enrolled. For 24 of the 102 listed programs the figure is the two-year completion median rather than the four-year one. The metric does not adjust for graduate school enrollment, cost, or who enrolls, and it is not a measure of teaching quality. The range and median below cover the 98 schools with a published figure. Massachusetts Institute of Technology leads Dartmouth College by $6,371, and the spread from Massachusetts Institute of Technology to the bottom of the list is $149,757.
