2023 Best Value Statistics Schools in California
Identifying Quality Schools at More Affordable Prices
Finding the Best Statistics School for You
With 1,509 degrees and certificates handed out in 2020-2021, statistics is the #71 most popular major in California.
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 Statistics Schools in California ranking is one of many tools that Course Advisor has developed to help you make your educational decision. This report analyzed 16 schools in California to see which ones offered the best value programs for stats students. The goal was to highlight schools with more affordable prices than others offering similar quality experiences.
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.
