ATLANTA â Georgia Tech provides the best value among the Peach Stateâs public and private universities, according to a new study by a New York-based financial technology company.
The Atlanta school scored a college education value index of 83.71, well above the second-highest score of 57.90 posted by the University of Georgia, the report by SmartAsset found.

The main category that separated Georgia Tech from the rest of the pack was the average starting salary of $74,500 for Tech graduates.
