To help you arm yourself with the information you need to make your decision, Grad Degree Search has developed this Best Value Geography & Cartography Graduate Certificate Schools in Georgia ranking. Our analysis looked at 3 schools in Georgia to see which graduate certificate programs offered the best value experiences for geography students with the aim of identifying those quality schools that are more affordable than some of their counterparts.

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.
