Identifying Quality Schools at More Affordable Prices
Finding the Best History Master's Degree School for You
With 505 degrees and certificates handed out in 2020-2021, history is the #22 most popular major in Alabama.
When it comes to higher education, there are a lot of options for students. As online education oppotunities continue to grow, you're not restricted to just schools in your local area anymore. Even some of the 'big name' schools are offering online courses. Also, there are a number of trade schools with offerings that you might find attractive.
The Best Value History Master's Degree Schools in Alabama ranking is one of many tools that Course Advisor has developed to help you make your educational decision. Our analysis looked at 5 schools in Alabama to see which master's degree programs offered the best value experiences for history 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.
