SUNY Maritime Ranked a Top College

SUNY Maritime College has been ranked by a national think tank as the top public college in the nation in graduate earnings, and for providing the highest value-added in mid-career earnings.

A recent study by the Brookings Institution found that SUNY Maritime College graduates earned, on average, more than $121,000 a year in the decade following the completion of their degrees, more than their counterparts at national institutions such as Harvard and Yale. 

Maritime College grads also realized a value-added 42 percentage; a calculation that measures the difference between actual and predicted earnings.  A zero value-added measure indicates a school’s students earn the average as students at similar types of colleges.  Again, SUNY Maritime College ranks first in public four-year colleges.
