State University of New York at Postdam, New York
New York has been one of the most sought-after states when it comes to students wanting to go off to college and to start a new life. The State University of New York can provide that experience, but it comes at a cost. Students will have to pay over $80,000 for a four-year cost and the payoff is simply not worth it.

20 years after graduating, most students have a return on investment of approximately negative $34,000. For decades of debt, it might not be the best idea to sign up for this school.
