To assist you in seeing some of the education options that are available to you, Course Advisor has created its Best Value Multi / Interdisciplinary Studies Doctor's Degree Schools in New York ranking. This report analyzed 4 schools in New York to see which ones offered the best value doctor's degree programs for multi / interdisciplinary studies 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.
