To assist you in seeing some of the education options that are available to you, Course Advisor has created its Best Value Other Education Schools in Virginia ranking. Our analysis looked at 5 schools in Virginia to see which programs offered the best value experiences for other education students with the aim of identifying those quality schools that are more affordable than some of their counterparts.

Our ranking of value is based on the quality of a program as defined in our per sticker price dollar. 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.
