2023 Best Value Medicine Schools
Identifying Quality Schools at More Affordable Prices
Finding the Best Medicine School for You
With 28,629 degrees and certificates handed out in 2020-2021, medicine is the #9 most popular major in the United States.
There are lots of options to pick from today when trying to decide which program is right for you. 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 Medicine Schools ranking is one of many tools that Grad Degree Search has developed to help you make your educational decision. This report analyzed 133 schools in the United States to see which ones offered the best value programs for medicine 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. 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.
Our calculations use out-of-state tuition and fees in our nationwide and regional rankings. Average in-state tuition and fees are used for our statewide rankings.
