Merrimack Ranks in Money’s Best Colleges 2024

North Andover, MA— June 12. 2024 — Today, Merrimack College announced that they have earned recognition as one of the Best Colleges in America by Money.

To compile its new list of the Best Colleges in America, Money examined more than 2400 universities and hundreds of data points to create the list of 745 4-year universities and colleges. Money’s editorial team weighted the data points as follows:

  • Affordability (40%)
  • Quality of Education (30%)
  • Employment and earnings outcomes (30%)

Each of the universities and colleges on Money’s list was assigned an overall star ranking between two and five stars, the latter being the highest a university or college could receive.

Now in its 10th edition, Money’s Best Colleges is a premier ranking for prospective students and parents looking to make this important decision based on likely future outcomes post graduation. For the complete methodology, visit here.
