Also there are many trade schools that offer short-term programs that open up more career options.
The Best Value Educational Administration Schools in Louisiana ranking is one of many tools that Course Advisor has developed to help you make your educational decision. Our analysis looked at 14 schools in Louisiana to see which programs offered the best value experiences for education admin 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. 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.
For nationwide and regional rankings, we use out-of-state tuition and fees in our calculations. For statewide rankings, we use average in-state tuition and fees.
