Location: Boca Raton, FL
This university is another one that has some good things going for it – like its beautiful campuses in sunny Florida. Unfortunately, they’re also known for policies that milk students for every cent they have.
According to former students, it’s best to save your money and find a school that isn’t so expensive and has credits that are more widely accepted for transfers.
Hartwick College
Location: Oneonta, New York
Hartwick seems like it’s more trouble (on the wallet) than it’s worth.
For starters, the graduation rate is just 58%. And those who do complete their programs on time only end up earning an average of $48,500 per year after spending $48,120 on their yearly tuition.
Texas College
Location: Tyler, Texas
Texas has a lot of things going for it. Texas College isn’t one of them. The school’s graduation rate is one of the worst on this list, at a sad 12%, which is actually lower than last year by about a half percent. But that’s only the beginning of the bad at Texas College.
The average six-year salary for college grads is just over $23,000. Put that up against the loan debt of around $21,000, and it goes to show why this school is one of the worst in the Western world.
University of Montevallo
Location: Montevallo, Alabama
This public university in Alabama seems to be trailing behind in terms of what their grads get out of their time at Montevallo.
Take their average debt of nearly $26,0000 compared to the median salary of $38,300. Maybe that’s why only 47% of students choose to complete their programs at this school.
Middlebury College
Location: Middlebury, Vermont
This is another school that has come under fire for its policies that restrict freedom of speech and violate the U.S. Constitution.
The most recent example is their anti-discrimination and harassment policy.
