EDsmart Releases New Study: Colleges Where Women Graduates Earn More Than Men
EDsmart examined data from the Education Department’s College Scorecard to find which schools produce the highest-earning female graduates compared to male graduates from the same institution 10 years after graduation.
For this analysis, only schools that primarily award undergraduate degrees were included and gender determination was based on binary classifications from school records. In the event of a tie, the school with the highest median salary overall was used.
The EDsmart study found that the #1 school where women earn more than men was Holy Names University in Oakland, CA with Hampton University and San Francisco Art Institute following.
The complete list is as follows:
#10. Viterbo University
#9. Marymount Manhattan College
#8. Oklahoma Wesleyan University
#7. American International College
#6. Talladega College
#5. Washington Adventist University
#4. Cumberland University
#3. San Francisco Art Institute
#2. Hampton University
#1. Holy Names University
University response to EDsmart studies and rankings has been very positive. Sharing the rankings on their websites and via social media has helped schools attract new students and excite existing students and alumni.
The study and data were produced for EDsmart, a leading higher education research organization. All evaluated data was gathered from IPEDs, the U.S. Department of Higher Education, school websites, and other reputable sources.
The study has been been published at https://www.edsmart.org/colleges-where-women-graduates-earn-more-than-men/
