The metric does not adjust for graduate school enrollment, cost of attendance, or differences in who enrolls, and it is not a measure of teaching quality. The range and median below cover the 10 schools with a published figure. University of Florida leads Florida International University by $10,769, and the spread from the top of the list to the bottom is $46,511. ## Related rankings - [Best Music Programs in the United States](/rankings/best-music-programs/) - [Top Music Programs in California by Earnings](/rankings/best-music-programs-in-california/) - [Top Music Programs in New York by Earnings](/rankings/best-music-programs-in-new-york/) - [Top Music Programs in Michigan by Earnings](/rankings/best-music-programs-in-michigan/) - [Top Music Programs in Texas by Earnings](/rankings/best-music-programs-in-texas/) - [Best Art & Design Colleges in Florida](/rankings/best-art-and-design-colleges-in-florida/) - Art & Design Colleges in Florida for Social Mobility
