2023 Best Value Public Health Schools in Rhode Island
Highlighting Quality Schools With More Affordable Pricing
Finding the Best Public Health School for You
Public Health is one of the most popular subjects to study in Rhode Island. With 172 degrees and certificates handed out in 2020-2021, it ranked 5th out of all the majors we track in the state.
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.
Along with in-depth profiles of schools and the programs they offer, Healthcare Degree Search has created the Best Value Public Health Schools in Rhode Island to help you in your search for the best school for you. Our analysis looked at 4 schools in Rhode Island to see which programs offered the best value experiences for public health 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. 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.
