Finding the Best Computer Software & Applications Undergraduate Certificate School for You

With 1,261 degrees and certificates handed out in 2020-2021, computer software and applications is the #60 most popular major in New York.

When it comes to higher education, there are a lot of options for students. You can choose a traditional brick and mortar school, or with the growth of online education, you can attend a school half-way across the country without even leaving your house. Also there are many trade schools that offer short-term programs that open up more career options.

Along with in-depth profiles of schools and the programs they offer, Course Advisor has created the Best Value Computer Software Applications Undergraduate Certificate Schools in New York to help you in your search for the best school for you. Our analysis looked at 3 schools in New York to see which undergraduate certificate programs offered the best value experiences for computer software students with the aim of identifying those quality schools that are more affordable than some of their counterparts.

This ranking is not just a list of inexpensive schools. We also consider each school's quality, since we believe a low-quality school may not be a 'bargain' at any price. More specifically, we discount our quality score by the published tuition and fees charged by a school. This gives the cost per unit of quality for each college. The value is determined by how much quality your dollar buys.

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