Website Degreechoices, which focuses solely on graduates’ return on educational investment after starting their careers, ranks Stanislaus State No. 8 in California on its 2023 list of best colleges. 

The website uses a unique methodology that produces economic scores to rank colleges. The scores represent the impact various degrees will have on students’ future salaries and how quickly graduates can expect to recoup their educational expenses because of those incomes.
