2. Massachusetts Institute of Technology | MIT ($131,250)
Even though The Big Bang Theory‘s Sheldon Cooper mocked MIT a lot, it is actually one of the best universities in the United States.
Massachusetts Institute of Technology is an independent, coeducational, private research university with more than 10,000 students. In fact, around 30% of them are international students. That is how popular this university is among academics around the world.
Some of them are even willing to pay $131,250 for tuition fee. That is for students who take MBA or SM degree of MIT Sloan Fellow Program for Innovation & Global Leadership. As for undergraduate students, the fee is $48,452.
I don’t know where to start if you ask me about the university’s notable alumni. Because among them are 85 Nobel laureates, 52 National Medal of Science recipients, and 34 astronauts. And if those are not enough, they still have 19 Turing award winners, 16 Chief Scientists of the US Air Force, 65 Marshal Scholars, 45 Rhodes Scholars, and 38 MacArthur Fellows.
