Social Media Matters:
50% of Forbes college
rankings based on social
media sources.
the staff at CCAP gathered data from a variety of sources. They based 25% of the rankings on 4 million student
evaluations of courses and instructors, as recorded on the Web site RateMyProfessors.com. Another 25% is
based on post-graduate success, equally determined by enrollment-adjusted entries in Who's Who in America,
and by a new metric, the average salaries of graduates reported by Payscale.com.
