• 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 real estate development students go into to obtain their master's degree and how well they are able to pay back that debt.
