CANTON, Mo. – Culver-Stockton College is ranked as the top college or university in Missouri for getting a job in 2019, according to Zippia, Inc., a California-based national resource website with career information for job seekers.
Using public data from the U.S. Department of Education’s College Scorecard tool (collegescorecard.ed.gov) and the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System, Zippia searched for the college in each state with the highest listed job placement ratings, looking specifically at employment levels 10 years past graduation. Zippia limited the analysis to the 46 public and nonprofit, four-year institutions in Missouri that offer at least a bachelor’s degree.
The No. 1 school in the nation on Zippia’s list is Quinnipiac University in Hamden, Conn., which has a 96.1 percent placement rate. Culver-Stockton’s 94.39 percent placement rate ranks among the top 20 schools in the nation.
C-SC’s placement rate of 92.93 percent was No. 2 in last year’s ranking for Missouri behind Saint Louis University.
