Okay so I'm doing a little digging into colleges I might want to apply to. Was curious about something, does anyone know which schools in New Mexico have the highest number of graduates with college degrees? I feel like it might be useful to know for deciding where to go.
Sure, though it's important to note that the number of graduates doesn't necessarily connect to the quality of an education institution. That being said, the University of New Mexico (UNM) in Albuquerque and New Mexico State University (NMSU) in Las Cruces are two of the largest universities in New Mexico and also have robust graduation rates, meaning they confer the highest number of degrees annually in diverse fields.
However, I suggest also looking into colleges such as St. John's College in Santa Fe, which is much smaller but highly respected, especially for its Liberal Arts program, and the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, known for STEM fields.
The best college for you depends on your own academic interests and personal preferences. Consider factors such as available majors, small vs large campus, student-faculty ratio, extracurricular opportunities, the community, costs, and financial aid when making your decision.
