Choosing a Great Legal Research School for Your Doctor's Degree
Your choice of legal research for getting your doctor's degree school matters. This section explores some of the factors we include in our ranking and how much they vary depending on the school you select. To make it into this list, a school must excel in the following areas.
A Great Overall School
The overall quality of a doctor's degree school is important to ensure a good education, not just how well they do in a particular major. To make it into this list a school must rank well in our overall Best Colleges for a Doctor's Degree ranking. This ranking considered factors such as graduation rates, overall graduate earnings and other educational resources to identify great colleges and universities.
Early-Career Earnings
One measure we use to determine the quality of a school is to look at the average salary of doctorate graduates during the early years of their career. This is because one of the main reasons people pursue their doctor's degree is to enable themselves to find better-paying positions.
Other Factors We Consider
In addition to the above, you should consider some of the following factors:
Major Focus - How much a school focuses on legal research students vs. other majors.
Major Demand - How many other legal research students want to attend this school to pursue a doctor's degree.
Educational Resources - The amount of money and other resources allocated to students while they are pursuing their degree. These resources include such things as number of students per instructor and education expenditures per student.
Student Debt - How much debt legal research students go into to obtain their doctor's degree and how well they are able to pay back that debt.
Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized legal research related body.
Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best schools for legal research students working on their doctor's degree.

Insufficient Data for Pennsylvania
Sad to say, we do not have adequate data to produce a ranking of the top quality schools for legal research in Pennsylvania. This is typically due to there not being enough schools in Pennsylvania that both offer legal research and provided enough information for us to do a sufficient analysis.
