2023 Best Value Mathematics & Statistics Schools
Highlighting Quality Schools With More Affordable Pricing
Finding the Best Mathematics & Statistics School for You
In 2020-2021, 15,127 people earned a degree or certificate in mathematics and statistics, making the major the #14 most popular in the United States.
Today's students have lots of options to pick from when considering higher education opportunities. As online education oppotunities continue to grow, you're not restricted to just schools in your local area anymore. Even some of the 'big name' schools are offering online courses. Also, there are a number of trade schools with offerings that you might find attractive.
The Best Value Mathematics & Statistics Schools ranking is one of many tools that Grad Degree Search has developed to help you make your educational decision. This report analyzed 221 schools in the United States to see which ones offered the best value programs for mathematics and statistics 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.
