by our College Data Analytics TeamThe goal of College Factual's yearly Best Quality Schools rankings is to help students find graduate schools that provide excellent learning environments that are a great fit for them. Our methodology places a high weight on things such as post-graduation wages, time to graduate, and student-per-faculty ratio. Post-graduation debt, faculty and staff diversity, and other factors are also taken into account.
