How to use this ranking.

Choose your family’s income bracket to compare reported prices for that group. Then use each college’s net price calculator to estimate your own cost.

What the rank does not tell you.

These are reported averages after grants and scholarships. Residency, assets and aid eligibility can change your price; an income bracket is not an aid offer.

Spike ranks the colleges in its guide, not every college in America. Read the full method and its limits, or compare colleges by your own priorities.
