"Fifty Affordable Colleges With the Best ROI"

Bloomberg Businessweek

The College of the Holy Cross ranked 21st on Bloomberg Businessweek’s annual ranking of the 50 affordable colleges with the best return on investment (ROI)—up from 34th last year.

According to the article, all of the schools on the list are "affordable thanks to generous financial aid packages that on average cover about half of the degree's 'sticker price.'" With 47 percent of students receiving an average annual aid package of $27,130, Bloomberg Businessweek calculated Holy Cross’ 30-year net return on investment for graduates at $1,244,000.
