To determine which of Forbes’ top 500 colleges offer the best return on investment (ROI), we looked at each school’s price-to-earnings premium, a calculation by the think tank Third Way that shows the number of years it takes graduates to recoup the net cost of their education. We also factored in the schools’ debt-to-percent-borrowed index, a figure that Forbes created for the top 500 colleges list that takes into account how many students take on debt to attend the school, and how much debt those graduates leave with. Check out the #ForbesTopColleges with the best ROI: https://trib.al/6TUvurc

When shopping startup Checkmate went viral in December 2022, its little team was caught by surprise. Their app, which offers personalized deals to users, promised a cash-back bonus for referring new users; as it soared to the top slot in Apple’s App Store, bots swarmed the program, and Checkmate’s back-end software couldn’t keep up.
