Edsmart.Org Names Prairie View A and M University as Top HBCU by Starting Average
SalaryEDsmart.org has ranked the best HBCU colleges for 2015-2016 by average starting salary. The annual EDsmart rankings recognize historically historically black colleges whose alumni earn the highest average starting salary.
Prairie View, TX -- (SBWire) -- 06/26/2015 --Edsmart.org offers another interesting report that shows students the best black colleges based on how much they can expect to earn after graduation. It will help them choose their college considering the starting salary they can expect upon their entering the workforce.
Choosing the right college is important to gain the right path for a successful career. When choosing a college a lot of students look at the location, the cost involved in going to that college as well as the reputation. However, when choosing a college as a starting point of a chosen career, one important factor should not be overlooked, and that is the average starting salary earned by graduates.
Since a prestigious school not necessarily translates into a higher salary, the college that offers a high starting salary can be the first choice of students. The statistic offered by Edsmart.org shows not only the average annual starting salary, but also the yearly tuition of the school.
