To assist you in seeing some of the education options that are available to you, Grad Degree Search has created its Best Value Computer & Information Sciences Schools in Utah ranking. Our analysis looked at 5 schools in Utah to see which programs offered the best value experiences for computer and information sciences students with the aim of identifying those quality schools that are more affordable than some of their counterparts.

Our ranking of value is based on the quality of a program as defined in our per sticker price dollar.

The value is determined by how much quality your dollar buys.

In our regional and nationwide rankings, out-of-state tution and fees are used in our calculations. Average in-state tuition and fees are used for our statewide rankings.
