EDsmart’s ranking of the Best Colleges in Los Angeles is the most comprehensive and well-rounded. The ranking includes only fully accredited schools. Rankings are based on data that covers four main areas: cost, academic quality, student satisfaction, and salary after attending, according to data from the U.S. Department of Education.

“It is important to recognize the colleges and universities that go above and beyond,” said Tyson Stevens, managing editor of EDsmart. “Our goal is to highlight these schools and their commitment to higher education.”

“The Best Colleges in Los Angeles ranking allows students to compare accredited programs and find those that best fit their education interests and career goals,” said EDsmart’s spokesperson. “Beyond providing affordable education, a college is not successful if it does not graduate its students, which is why EDsmart rankings place a high value on outcomes, including graduation and retention rates, and post-graduation earnings.”

The EDsmart 2023 ranking for the Best Colleges in Los Angeles ranks California Institute of Technology #1 as the best college in Los Angeles with the University of California-Los Angeles and Pamona College following.
