2023 Best Value Information Technology Schools in Vermont
Identifying Quality Schools at More Affordable Prices
Finding the Best Information Technology School for You
Information Technology is one of the most popular subjects to study in Vermont. With 210 degrees and certificates handed out in 2020-2021, it ranked 9th out of all the majors we track in the state.
When it comes to higher education, there are a lot of options for students. You're no longer limited to schools in your local area, either, since online programs are becoming more prevalent. Or you may find the programs at a trade school to be a better alternative for you.
To assist you in seeing some of the education options that are available to you, Course Advisor has created its Best Value Information Technology Schools in Vermont ranking. Our analysis looked at 2 schools in Vermont to see which programs offered the best value experiences for IT 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.
