Other Factors We Consider

• Major Focus - How much a school focuses on sociology students vs. other majors.
• Major Demand - The number of sociology students who choose to seek a doctor'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.
• Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized sociology related body.
