In a new set of college and university rankings based on social mobility, Cal State East Bay ranked No. 47 in the nation.

The attempts to measure how well institutions educate those from families making less than the national median income — and the affordability of that education.

Unlike prominent rankings systems, CollegeNet’s social mobility survey does not take into account high scores on standardized tests.  

Tuition and economic background are the most important variables in the rankings, though graduation rate, early career salary and endowment were also taken into account.

Cal State East Bay was one of several California public schools that did well in the rankings.
