To assist you in seeing some of the education options that are available to you, Course Advisor has created its Best Value Dance Bachelor's Degree Schools in Maryland ranking. Our analysis looked at 4 schools in Maryland to see which bachelor's degree programs offered the best value experiences for dance 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. 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.

For nationwide and regional rankings, we use out-of-state tuition and fees in our calculations. For statewide rankings, we use average in-state tuition and fees.
