The Top 10 Colleges and Universities in Michigan

The above headline was used by Grand Rapids TV station Fox 17 to broadcast the rankings by Wallet Hub* of the top 10 colleges and universities in the state of Michigan. Kuyper College was ranked at number six.

To determine the top-performing schools at the lowest possible costs to undergraduates, Wallet Hub compared nearly 1,000 higher education institutions in the U.S. across 30 key measures. The data set is grouped into seven categories, such as student selectivity, cost and financing, and career outcomes. The metrics range from student-faculty ratio to graduation rate to post-attendance median salary.

Recognizing the challenge of predicting future outcomes, Wallet Hub’s best colleges ranking also analyzes post-attendance metrics—the student-loan default rate and the share of former students out-earning high school graduates—to show the value of the education students can expect to receive beyond their undergraduate studies. Finally, Wallet Hub applies each school’s weighted average across all metrics to calculate its overall score and rank order among all colleges.
