Bloomberg Features Baruch College for High ROI

April 17, 2024

Baruch College is among the nation's top colleges for value, according to an April article in Bloomberg: "Beyond the Ivies: Surprise Winners in the List of Colleges With the Highest ROI." This coverage points to the exceptional value that Baruch offers, as evidenced by its impressive return on investment (ROI), comparable to Ivy League institutions.

Spotlight on Baruch

Baruch College, known for its strong focus on accessible and impactful education, stands out even among technical and STEM-focused institutions for its ROI. According to Bloomberg's analysis, which utilized data from Georgetown University's Center on Education and the Workforce, Baruch College boasts an ROI of $257,000 with a remarkably low net price of $2,264, making education both affordable and beneficial in the long run.

The Bloomberg article delves into the ROI of over 1,500 nonprofit four-year colleges, revealing that the median ROI for Ivy League schools is nearly three times higher than the average for all colleges analyzed. However, Baruch College and a few other institutions defy this trend by offering superior ROIs without the hefty price tag associated with elite schools. This highlights the efficiency and effectiveness of Baruch's educational programs, particularly in maximizing economic outcomes for its graduates.

The Bloomberg features comes on the heels of a recent piece in the New York Times's flagship daily newsletter, The Morning. Readers of "An Upward-Mobility Machine," learned about Baruch's remarkable success and the American Talent Initiative report that features Baruch as an exemplar of access and excellence in higher education.
