Location: Jacksonville, Florida Florida Coastal School of Law was founded in 1996, but it often finds itself in troubled waters. Its already shut down multiple campuses, and in 2017, it failed the Department of Education’s debt-to-income ratio test, one of just two local law schools to do so.
They’ve also been cited by the American Bar Association for being “significantly out of compliance.”
Skidmore College
Location: Saratoga Springs, New York Skidmore College could be worse. After all, they do have a graduation rate of over 89%. But that doesn’t mean they don’t have their issues.
In this school’s case, they made the list because of their annual cost of attendance compared to average annual earnings ten years after the fact. They charge over $50,000 per year to earn about $46,000.
The University of North Alabama
Location: Florence, Alabama This is yet another one of those schools that have made FIRE’s top 10 list of the worst in the country for free speech, and it’s easy to see why.
The administration removed the student newspaper adviser after he published a story making unwanted inquiries about a certain situation on campus. The school also has a shady public relations policy in place which claims any interaction with the media by faculty must first be approved by admin officials.
Guilford College
Location: Greensboro, North Carolina The numbers don’t add up for Guilford grads who spend nearly $37,000 per year for their education.
Cut to ten years after entry and many still aren’t even making that much.
Bennington College
Location: Bennington, Vermont
This liberal arts college in Vermont is bad news, especially when it comes to money. The school charges an outrageous $73,000 – per year.
Considering the number of debt students are left with after graduation compared with how much they earn per year on average, its best to steer clear.
