Whether you just got your business degree from the college of your choice or still haven’t chosen your college, ThinkAdvisor compiled this ranking of colleges for you to see whose business-degree-holding alumni score the highest starting salaries.

We sifted through the results of PayScale’s extensive College Salary Report for 2018-’19. PayScale collects salary data from 2.3 million alumni of more than 4,000 universities to determine, among other things, starting salary potential for business majors. PayScale determines starting salary as median starting pay for workers with 0-5 years of experience.

To figure the salary, PayScale combined base annual salary or hourly wage, bonuses, profit sharing, tips, commissions, overtime, and other forms of cash earnings, but not stock compensation.

So, check out the list above for the Top 15 Colleges for Highest Starting Salary for Business Majors.
