Also there are many trade schools that offer short-term programs that open up more career options.
The Best Value Multi / Interdisciplinary Studies Schools in Colorado ranking is one of many tools that Course Advisor has developed to help you make your educational decision. Our analysis looked at 8 schools in Colorado to see which programs offered the best value experiences for multi / interdisciplinary studies 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.
