在留学申请选择学校的过程中,毕业之后的薪水是所有留学生和家长们非常关心的数据。尤其是在美国大学全面开放的今天,面对不菲的留学费用,大多数去美国留学的孩子和家长们选择学校时,毕业之后的薪水情况是非常重要的参考标准。我相信在很多国人的眼中,学校排名和薪水水平绝对是正相关的。
但是前些天看到PayScale的一项关于美国大学毕业生毕业收入排行榜,着实让我吃了一惊。像纽约理工,史蒂文斯理工这种国人眼中毫不起眼,甚至是AD狂,烂校的学校,居然排进了top 13。于是把这些数据贴出来,给大家看一下。
希望大家在选校时可以考虑的更加全面一些。而不是盲目迷信USNEWS的所谓权威排名。

不过,同时我也想提醒大家,也不要盲目迷信PayScale这个数据。如果仔细分析一下上述数据,我们需要注意两点,第一这个统计是本科毕业生的,第二数据中很大的组成部分肯定是美国本土毕业生。
基于这两点,大家就应该明白,这个数据对于咱们中国学生不太适用的。所以还是跟大家强调一下,各种排名是死的,只是用来参考的。咱们在留学申请选择学校的过程中,要全面根据自己的申请需求,职业目标等因素进行学校选择。
