This group looks for colleges with a reported admission rate at least 10 percentage points above Florida International University’s and four-year earnings within 15% of Florida International University’s figure. It offers another starting point for an application list; a higher school-wide admission rate does not establish your chance of admission.

These are comparisons of reported school-level measures, not a forecast that changing schools would raise your earnings.

Lower cost with similar earnings
This group looks for a reported net price at least 15% below Florida International University’s, with four-year earnings within 15% of Florida International University’s figure. It can help identify schools worth comparing on cost, but the school-wide net price is not an aid offer or a matched price for your income band.
