Highlighting Quality Schools With More Affordable Prices

10 Schools Ranked
$19,256 Avg Tuition & Fees*

With all the healthcare programs available today, it can be tough to choose which one is the best for you. 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 and bootcamps with offerings that you might find attractive.

The Best Value Healthcare Master's Degree Schools in Utah ranking is one of many tools that Healthcare Degree Search has developed to help you make your educational decision. This report analyzed 10 schools in Utah to see which ones offered the best value master's degree programs for healthcare 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.
