Finding the Best Value Statistics School for You
In 2021-2022, N/A people earned their bachelor's in statistics, making the major the #79 most popular in the United States.
This year's Best Value Bachelor's Degree Colleges for Statistics ranking looked at 95 colleges that offer a bachelor's in stats. To us, 'best value' doesn't just mean the school with the lowest overall costs. Instead, we are looking at those stats schools that offer a high quality educational experience at a price lower than expected.
To determine the average cost, we look at total expenses - such as tuition, fees, room and board, books, and other related expenses - and then subtract the average financial award a student receives. Knowing this amount can help you determine how much you may have to borrow in loans or take out of savings. Depending on your income and other factors, the cost for you to attend a particular school may be more or less.
One Size Does Not Fit All
Since the program you select can have a significant impact on your future, we've developed a number of rankings, including this Best Value Stats Schools list, to help you choose the best school for you.
