Wheelock College

Wheelock College in Boston, Massachusetts is definitely not the first university people think of when Boston is mentioned. It is named after Lucy Wheelock, a descendent of John Adams, an educator that founded the college. It later merged with Boston University’s School of Education. A four year degree from here costs $201,000, but its 20 year ROI is -$140,700.

Lindsey Wilson College

Lindsey Wilson College in Columbia, Kentucky does have a solid athletics department, with several alumni going pro. However, with an average cost of $152,000 for a four year degree and a 20 year ROI of -$160,800, it might not be the best idea. Additionally, the school’s graduation rate is just 34%.
