Highlighting Quality Schools With More Affordable Pricing
Finding the Best Education Doctor's Degree School for You
Education is one of the most popular subjects to study in Arizona. With 16,265 degrees and certificates handed out in 2020-2021, it ranked 3rd out of all the majors we track in the state.
It's not easy to decide which program to enroll in when you have so many options available. 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 Education Doctor's Degree Schools in Arizona ranking. Our analysis looked at 5 schools in Arizona to see which doctor's degree programs offered the best value experiences for 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. 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.
