Along with in-depth profiles of schools and the programs they offer, Course Advisor has created the Best Value Marketing Schools in Missouri to help you in your search for the best school for you. This report analyzed 24 schools in Missouri to see which ones offered the best value programs for marketing students. The goal was to highlight schools with more affordable prices than others offering similar quality experiences.

Our ranking of value is based on the quality of a program as defined in our per sticker price dollar. Specifically, our score for quality is discounted by the published tuition and fees charged by the given college. This gives the cost per unit of quality for each college. The more quality your dollar buys, the better the value.

In our regional and nationwide rankings, out-of-state tution and fees are used in our calculations. For statewide rankings, we use average in-state tuition and fees.
