Why this major isn't ranked
Teacher pay is set by state and district salary scales, not by the program, so pay can't rank education programs, and nothing else public does. This is a list of schools that offer the major, biggest first, not a ranking. Sources: US Department of Education (College Scorecard, IPEDS), OpenStreetMap and Wikimedia Commons.
