Choosing a Great Mechanic & Repair Technologies School for Your Associate Degree

Your choice of mechanic & repair technologies for getting your associate degree school matters. Important measures of a quality mechanic & repair technologies program can vary widely even among the top schools. Below we explain some of the most important factors to consider before making your choice:

Overall Quality Is a Must

The overall quality of a associate 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 ranking. This ranking considered factors such as graduation rates, overall graduate earnings and other educational resources to identify great colleges and universities.

Average Early-Career Salaries

To determine the overall quality of a graduate school, one factor we look at is the average early-career salary of those receiving their associate degree from the school. After all, your associate degree won't mean much if it doesn't help you find a job that will help you earn a living.

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 mechanic & repair technologies students vs. other majors.
• Major Demand - How many other mechanic & repair technologies students want to attend this school to pursue a associate 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 mechanic & repair technologies 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 mechanic & repair technologies related body.

Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best schools for mechanic & repair technologies students working on their associate degree.
