Wheelock College – Boston, Massachusetts

Wheelock College in Boston, Massachusetts, is one of the many universities that contribute to the city’s allure. It was formerly known as Miss Wheelock’s Kindergarten Training School since it was created by Lucy Wheelock, a descendant of John Adams who went on to become a well-known educator. It was renamed Wheelock College after combining with Boston University’s School of Education. Teachers, on the other hand, do not make enough money, and a four-year degree from Wheelock costs $201,000. After 20 years, the return on investment is -$140,700.

Lindsey Wilson College – Columbia, Kentucky

Lindsey Wilson College is another school that just does not provide a good return on investment. At the very least, the school has a lot of serious athletics going on, and numerous alumni are professional athletes. Their soccer team is a prominent force in the NAIA, the sports league for smaller colleges. A four-year degree costs $152,000, and only 34% of students are able to afford it. After spending so much money on school, the return on investment is -$160,800, which is really disheartening.
