One measure we use to determine the quality of a school is to look at the average salary of associate graduates during the early years of their career. This is because one of the main reasons people pursue their associate degree is to enable themselves to find better-paying positions.
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 marine transportation students vs. other majors.
Major Demand - The number of marine transportation students who choose to seek a associate 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 much debt marine transportation students go into to obtain their associate 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 marine transportation related body.
Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best schools for marine transportation students working on their associate degree.

Sad to say, we do not have sufficient info to form a ranking of the top quality schools for marine transportation in the United States. This is typically due to there not being enough schools in the United States that both offer marine transportation and provided enough information for us to do a sufficient analysis.
