Choosing a Great Student Counseling School for Your Doctor's Degree

The student counseling doctor's degree program you select can have a big impact on your future. Important measures of a quality student counseling program can vary widely even among the top schools. When choosing a school we recommend considering some of the following factors:

Quality Overall Is Important

A school that excels in educating for a particular major and degree level must be a great school overall as well. To take this into account we consider a college's overall Best Colleges for a Doctor's Degree ranking which itself looks at a host of various factors like degree completion, educational resources, student body caliber and post-graduation earnings for the school as a whole.

Average Earnings

To determine the overall quality of a graduate school, one factor we look at is the average early-career salary of those receiving their doctor's degree from the school. After all, your doctor's 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

The metrics below are just some of the other metrics that we use to determine our rankings.

• Major Focus - How much a school focuses on student counseling students vs. other majors.
• Major Demand - The number of student counseling 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.
• Student Debt - How much debt student counseling students go into to obtain their doctor's 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 student counseling related body.

Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best schools for student counseling students working on their doctor's degree.

Insufficient Data for Pennsylvania

On account of missing data, we could not show you the student counseling quality ranking. This is usually due to there not being enough schools in Pennsylvania that both offer student counseling and provided enough information for us to do a sufficient analysis.
