Metropolitan State University Rankings by Salary Score™
Salary and Debt by Major at Metropolitan State University
We calculated a Salary Score for each of Metropolitan State University's programs by comparing program-specific median alumni earnings to median alumni earnings for the same program across all schools that provide this data. This way, students can compare the relative salary strength of a specific major at Metropolitan State University to the same major at other schools. A school's overall score by level is based on the school's by-program performance weighted by student enrollment in each program. Data is sourced from the December 2020 release of the U.S. Department of Education's College Scorecard and reflects median alumni debt upon graduation and median alumni earnings in the year after graduation for students who received federal financial aid. Debt and salary numbers are shown rounded to the nearest $10.

Metropolitan State University Reviews

Very disorganized professors which is incredibly frustrating when you are trying to juggle work, school, and parenting. The professors had a curriculum of setting it and not engaging. I learned the same thing over and over again and I was paying out of pocket
Do NOT waste time or money. The people in charge are beyond rude and uncaring. When you ask for help they won't do anything other than tell you to study more. Even if you get 100% on assignment, if test scores are below 78% they don't count your course work and you fail.
