Money Magazine Once Again Names Babson a Five-Star Best College
For the second year in a row, Babson College has been named one of the top colleges in the United States by Money magazine, earning a five-star rating on its 2025 list of Best Colleges.
Babson ranked as one of only 40 colleges—among the analysis of more than 700 schools—to be rated five stars for scoring exceptionally high on most of its metrics, including quality of education, affordability, and especially outcomes.
“Babson performs extremely well in Money’s evaluation of student outcomes,” Money magazine writes in its profile of Babson. “Grads tend to stand out in the job market, with early-career earnings topping $120,000. That’s high even compared to other schools that produce a lot of business majors.”
The Money magazine rating is the latest accolade emphasizing the increasing value of a degree from Babson College. Last year, The Wall Street Journal ranked Babson the No. 2 Best College in the United States, praising the College for its impact on graduates’ career performance.
Money’s ratings system considers a host of data-driven factors, including graduation rates, peer quality, instructor access, net price of a degree, student debt, earnings 10 years after college entry, employment outcomes, and value-added earnings.
