Credential Classification & Durations
Institutions are grouped into rows by their predominant degree level. However, the ROI calculations for each school reflect its actual highest degree awarded. If a predominantly Certificate-awarding school offers Associate degrees, or a predominantly Associate-awarding school offers Bachelor's degrees, the metrics correctly reflect those longer program durations.
