All the more reason to attend Georgia Tech or the University of Georgia. A new ranking of public colleges based on cost value and quality education puts both Georgia campuses in the top 10.
Tech ranks 9th on the new Kiplinger best-value list among public campuses, while UGA ranks 10th.
In recognizing Tech, Kiplinger notes: “Georgia Tech boasts the highest average salary figure ($74,500 10 years after enrolling) of all 100 public colleges on our list.”
Explaining why UGA made the top 10, Kiplinger says, “About half of students make it to graduation day without taking student loans, but among those who do report borrowing, the average debt is nearly $5,000 less than the national average among four-year public school borrowers.”
