A Great Overall School
A school that excels in educating for a particular major and degree level must be a great school overall as well.

- Major Focus - How much a school focuses on visual and performing arts students vs. other majors.
- Major Demand - How many other visual and performing arts students want to attend this school to pursue a associate degree.
- 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 visual and performing arts related body.
