Home to Boston, "America's College Town," along with a number of well-respected colleges outside of the Boston area, Massachusetts boasts a long and storied tradition of education. From small, elite liberal arts schools to large research universities, and everything in between, Massachusetts has a lot to offer prospective college students. This ranking seeks to act as a guide for students in their search.
"Trying to rank the best schools in Massachusetts is really a matter of comparing excellence to excellence," Christian Amondson, Managing Editor of College Choice, said of the ranking. "Of course, there are important metrics that we take account of, and one of those is return on investment.
