The Bwog
A Graph of All the Money You Won't Be Making

Payscale.com has just released a ranking of the best Ivy League Schools in terms of post-Bachelors salaries. Let's see how Columbia stacked up. Why look, it's last, dead last. Topping the list is Dartmouth (fraternities), followed by Princeton (eating clubs) and Yale (collective ennui?).

As one Bwog staffer points out: "This says a lot more about the profile of students who go to these schools than how much the schools help them.

People like me who aren't going to make a lot of money are gonna drag the average down even though people from Columbia can still make that cash if they go into a profitable field."

See how SEAS and Barnard stack up after the jump.


Elsewhere in the Ivy League: Mo' Money, Mo' Problems

The first Ivy League fees for next year have been set: Princeton has ra ised total fees to $43,980 while keeping tuition at $33,000. Interesting tidbit: currently, Columbia is the most expensive Ivy ($45,444, as your parents likely know), followed by Penn and Harvard. Columbia will announce next year's tuition in June, last of all the Ivies; stay tuned to see just how much Alma Mater will cut into your cigarettes-and-Pinnacle budget for '07-'08.


Two makes a trend!

has relayed that Princeton has joined Harvard in ending early admissions. Shall we proceed from largest to smallest endowment? Or till the order go by US News Rankings? Either way, the other six are in the hot seat...

According to an Insane Stanford Grad Student and Google ...
... Columbia is the 7th best university in the country. Take that, U.S. News!*

*They ranked us 9th.
