Early-Career Earnings
One measure we use to determine the quality of a school is to look at the average salary of master's graduates during the early years of their career. That is, everyone wants their master's degree to be worth something, and salaries are one measure of determining that.
Other Factors We Consider
The metrics below are just some of the other metrics that we use to determine our rankings.
Major Focus - How much a school focuses on religious studies students vs. other majors.
Major Demand - The number of religious studies students who choose to seek a master's degree at the school.
Educational Resources - How many resources are allocated to students. These resources may include educational expenditures per student, number of students per instructor, and graduation rate among other things.
Student Debt - How easy is it for religious studies to pay back their student loans after receiving their master's degree.
Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized religious studies related body.
Our complete ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best schools for religious studies students working on their master's degree.

Insufficient Data for California
As a result of lacking data, we were not able to show you the religious studies quality ranking. This is usually due to there not being enough schools in California that both offer religious studies and provided enough information for us to do a sufficient analysis.
