Finding the Best Writing Studies School for You

In 2020-2021, 401 degrees and certificates were awarded to writing studies students who went to a New York college or university. This makes it the #54 most popular major in the state.

When it comes to higher education, there are a lot of options for students. You're no longer limited to schools in your local area, either, since online programs are becoming more prevalent. Or you may find the programs at a trade school to be a better alternative for you.

The Best Value Writing Studies Schools in New York ranking is one of many tools that Grad Degree Search has developed to help you make your educational decision. This report analyzed 16 schools in New York to see which ones offered the best value programs for writing 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.
