Early-Career Earnings
One measure we use to determine the quality of a school is to look at the average salary of bachelor's graduates during the early years of their career. That is, everyone wants their bachelor's degree to be worth something, and salaries are one measure of determining that.

- Major Focus - How many resources a school devotes to real estate students as compared to other majors.
- Major Demand - How many other real estate students want to attend this school to pursue a bachelor's degree.
