Finding the Best Dentistry School for You

With 296 degrees and certificates handed out in 2020-2021, dentistry is the #17 most popular major in Texas.

When it comes to higher education, there are a lot of options for healthcare students. With more and more schools offering online options, you could even register for a great program on the other side of the country. On top of that, there are a considerable number of trade schools that offer fast-track entry to many fields.

The Best Value Dentistry Schools in Texas ranking is one of many tools that Healthcare Degree Search has developed to help you make your educational decision. Our analysis looked at 3 schools in Texas to see which programs offered the best value experiences for dentistry students with the aim of identifying those quality schools that are more affordable than some of their counterparts.

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.
