These schools are ranked using College Factual’s quality ranking system which is highly focused on outcomes such as loan default rates, graduation rates and average salaries of graduates.

2. Holy Cross
3. Gtown
4. BC
5. Nova
6. Santa Clara
7. Providence

What more evidence do we need?  FIRE STEVE WOJCIECHOWSKI!  Henry's D-League salary is likely what pulled us off the list.
