MIT is the No. 1 school in America according to tech professionals.

We recently released our seventh annual list of the 50 best colleges in America.

To create this list, we asked more than 1,000 of our readers to weigh in on which schools best prepare students for success after graduation.

We filtered the responses to only include people who said that they work in tech. 

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology was the No. 1 school on our main list of the best colleges, and remained so here.

Over 67% of survey respondents in the tech industry agreed that MIT is the best school. Stanford followed in second place with 54.7% of the vote, and Caltech came in third (48.9%).
