Which colleges send the largest amount of recent graduates to a given city
 
So basically I am trying to find a report or a study which says:

1) A given college
2) How many recent graduates from this college relocate to a given city

Let's assume the city is DC, because it is.

Did that make sense? Like a top 25 list of which colleges routinely send their recent graduates off to DC for their first careers.

I don't know of a list but I would think a university with a highly ranked poli sci or foreign service program would have lots of young alumni/ae in the area ie Georgetown, GW, W&L. In terms of graduate schools of government, newly minted MPAs and MPPs might be arriving from Fletcher and Kennedy.

^^^ Thanks, that's what I was thinking as well -- but someone accused me of being a snob, LOL

I will look for undergraduate rankings for government, poli sci, and foreign service.

Or, you can get in contact with Alumni Relations at a given school (or find someone who went to that school to do it for you), since they track the top 5-10 cities their alumni end up in. I know for us, it's Boston, NYC, DC, San Francisco, and LA (in some order that changes depending on the year).

True....jeez I wish there was a more efficient way to do this.

Have you tried calling your alma mater to ask if they know of a more efficient way? I'm always amazed at the weird statistics schools keep!
