2023 Best Value Public Health Bachelor's Degree Schools in Minnesota
Highlighting Quality Schools With More Affordable Pricing
Finding the Best Public Health Bachelor's Degree School for You
Out of the majors we analyze each year, public health was ranked 4th in Minnesota. In fact, 962 were awarded in the state in 2020-2021.
With all the healthcare programs available today, it can be tough to choose which one is the best 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.
To assist you in seeing some of the education options that are available to you, Healthcare Degree Search has created its Best Value Public Health Bachelor's Degree Schools in Minnesota ranking. This report analyzed 10 schools in Minnesota to see which ones offered the best value bachelor's degree programs for public health students. The goal was to highlight schools with more affordable prices than others offering similar quality experiences.
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. 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.
For nationwide and regional rankings, we use out-of-state tuition and fees in our calculations. For statewide rankings, we use average in-state tuition and fees.
