Abstract
We use between-group estimations to examine returns to college education with data from over 500 schools utilizing variables representing characteristics for individuals, institutions, and states. The results indicate that college majors, per capita income of the state where the school is located, and intuitional characteristics such as acceptance rates and faculty salaries are significant and important determinants of post-graduation incomes. In addition, we find private school graduates earn modestly higher salaries than those of public schools. Given the substantial extra costs of private schools, this implies that some benefits of private schooling are not captured in post-graduation incomes.
