    • Getting a college diploma can make a huge difference in the amount of money you earn. A previous GOBankingRates article found that a bachelor's degree could add an extra $1.5 million in income

The article from MSN Money discusses the 10 most overpriced elite universities in the U.S., based on the disparity between the cost of attendance and the starting salaries of their graduates.
