Finding the Best Dentistry School for You

With 186 degrees and certificates handed out in 2020-2021, dentistry is the #21 most popular major in Kentucky.

Today's students have lots of options to pick from when considering higher education opportunities. You can choose a traditional brick and mortar school, or with the growth of online education, you can attend a school half-way across the country without even leaving your house. Also there are many trade schools that offer short-term programs that open up more career options.

The Best Value Dentistry Schools in Kentucky ranking is one of many tools that Grad Degree Search has developed to help you make your educational decision. This report analyzed 2 schools in Kentucky to see which ones offered the best value programs for dentistry students. The goal was to highlight schools with more affordable prices than others offering similar quality experiences.

When determining this ranking, we place a high emphasis on the school's quality as well as its sticker price. Even though a college may be affordable, it may not offer value. 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.

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