Cara terbaik untuk mengevaluasi pendidikan perguruan tinggi empat tahun sebenarnya hanya berkisar satu variabel. Pada intinya, tujuan dari sebagian besar perguruan tinggi adalah untuk menghasilkan lulusan yang bahagia dan sukses. Jadi alih-alih menghitung metrik ROI (Return on Investment) biasa – seperti statistik pekerjaan, gaji dan statistik penempatan kerja – Forbes mengembangkan peringkat kepemilikan yang kita sebut Grateful Graduates Index.
Indeks ini peringkat perguruan tinggi swasta nirlaba dengan lebih dari 500 siswa menggunakan dua variabel, seperti yang dilaporkan ke Departemen Pendidikan, dan tingkat partisipasi alumni, atau persentase lulusan yang memberikan kembali dalam bentuk sumbangan ke perguruan tinggi mereka setiap tahun, terlepas dari jumlah dolar. Tingkat partisipasi alumni, yang disusun oleh Dewan untuk Kemajuan dan Dukungan Pendidikan (CASE), rata-rata selama tiga tahun. Total sumbangan median dolar diberikan bobot 70% dalam indeks dan partisipasi alumni diberikan 30%.
