IPEDS and College Scorecard data; schools without enough data to score appear last.

BOC Score, tuition, graduation rate, and median graduate earnings from

Schools closest to the main population center in Massachusetts are gathered first, then ranked by BOC Score; distance from the main population center in Massachusetts is shown for reference.
