Fordham has an interesting ranking in career earnings.
A new database released by Georgetown University’s Center on Education and the Workforce (CEW) ranks 4,500 colleges and universities based on their return on investment (ROI).
How much more money do College grads earn vs High School grads? The ranking assessed schools on a variety of factors, including tuition and costs, average student debt, graduation rates, and net earnings after enrollment. Institutions were ranked based on return on investment at the 10-year, 15-year, 20-year, 30-year, and 40-year periods.

Arguably you don’t just go to a post-secondary institution for the money. However, with the cost of college it is worth checking out the rankings; By the way, Harvard is surprisingly only ranked #45.
