How this list is ordered

Schools are ordered by Azimuth's return pillar for the South, highest first. The earnings figure for each school is the median for its federally aided completers across all fields, working and not enrolled, measured four years after completing. The list does not adjust for graduate school enrollment, cost, or who enrolls, and it is not a measure of teaching quality. The list includes 213 public and 287 private nonprofit institutions.
