Location: Northfield, Minnesota Carleton College is selective, accepting just 22% of students who apply to attend.
The academic program isn’t what put this school on our list, however, but rather the fact that it’s super expensive at more than $50,000 per year.
Talladega College
Location: Talladega, Alabama Talladega College may have one of the best marching bands in the country, but unless you plan on making a career out of band, consider the return on your investment for a moment.
And currently, that averages around -$156,000.
Remington College
Location: Garland, Texas Remington College in Texas is known for its shady recruiting practices.
According to an investigation by ABC revealed included taking on felons as students and telling them they could get jobs in criminal justice – when that’s not the case.
Doane University
Location: Crete, Nebraska There are a few reasons to reconsider attending this university in Nebraska. The first is that they’ve made top ten lists of the worst schools in the country for free speech.
Their expensive tuition and 60% graduation rate aren’t great, either.
Herzing University
Location: Madison, Wisconsin
Herzing University in Madison can be considered one of the best of the worst. Sure, it’s made its way on to this list, but it still isn’t as bad as some of these schools. The graduation rate is just a little above 42%, which is lower than the national average but much higher than those in the single digits or even in the teens and twenties.
The average loan debt for Herzing grads is higher than usual at over $32,000.
