All of them could provide quality educations. It should not surprise anyone that the better schools are A&M, Florida, Mizzou, and Vandy. That being said I would say Vandy for undergraduate and A&M for graduate. To know why this is, people need to understand things like the AAU, NSF, and research productivity.


Solid.

For most, to choose based on educational rankings alone would not necessarily give the whole "college" experience. It's not just "Timmy will make $xxx,xxx a year after he graduates" - but will be a combination of after graduation opportunities, and "college" experience opportunities.

Just looking at salary can be highly misleading too because of cost of living. Costs a hell of a lot less to live in Bentonville, Rogers or Little Rock than Houston or other big cities. Companies pay more in those areas to keep up with the higher cost of living.
