From large, public research universities to small, liberal arts colleges to everything in between, North Carolina offers a high-quality education for all different kinds of interests. With some luck and some work at networking, when students graduate they might be able to tap into networks in Charlotte, the country's second biggest financial center, or the Research Triangle, where some of the world's most innovative technology is being developed.
"If you tune into March Madness, then you're certainly familiar with at least a few of North Carolina's historic colleges," Christian Amondson, Managing Editor of College Choice, said of the ranking. "But there's much more to the state—and to university life—than basketball. With a wide variety of schools, North Carolina really has something to offer everyone."
College Choice developed its list by looking at academic quality, student body diversity, and return on investment—the differential between tuition costs and average early career earnings.
The ranking for the 25 Best Colleges in North Carolina finds Duke University in the top spot. Davidson College is in second, and University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill rounds out the top three.
