Top 75 Schools Analyzed Based on Career Resources, Student Success, Overall Quality

SAN FRANCISCO (PR WEB) March 28, 2017 – LearnHowToBecome.org, a leading resource provider for higher education and career information, has released its list of Michigan's best colleges and universities for 2017. Of the 48 four-year schools that made the list, University of Michigan Ann Arbor, Michigan Technological University, Albion College, Calvin College and Alma College were the top five institutions. 27 two-year schools were also included, with Lansing Community College, Washtenaw Community College, Delta College, Henry Ford Community College and Kellogg Community College in the top five. A full list of schools is included below.

“The job outlook in Michigan continues to be positive as the state's economy improves, and that's great news for students seeking a degree,” said Wes Ricketts, senior vice president of LearnHowToBecome.Org. “The schools on our list have established a commitment to student success, as demonstrated by their employment services and the average earnings of their alumni after graduation.”

To be included on Michigan's “Best Colleges” list, schools must be regionally accredited, not-for-profit institutions. Each college is also scored on additional data that includes annual alumni earnings 10 years after entering college, career services offered, availability of financial aid and such additional metrics as student/teacher ratios and graduation rates.
