本文估计了英国高等教育质量的财务回报。为了解释学生对院校的选择性，我们依赖于可观察假设的选择。我们使用了多种估计，包括 Hirano 和 Imbens 的广义倾向评分，它依赖于对机构质量的连续衡量。这凸显出质量回报是异质的，并且主要是由高质量机构驱动的。从质量第三四分位数的机构转变为质量最高的机构与收入增加 7% 相关。
This paper estimates the financial returns to higher education quality in the UK. To account for the selectivity of students to institution, we rely on a selection on observable assumptions. We use several estimates including the Generalised Propensity Score of Hirano and Imbens, which relies on a continuous measure of institutional quality. This highlights that the returns to quality are heterogenous, and mostly driven by high quality institutions. Moving from an institution in the 3rd quality quartile to a top quality institution is associated with a 7% increase in earnings.
