To calculate the value of a school in our Best Doctor's Degree Colleges for the Money (Income $30-$48k) in Oregon ranking, we first consider its average net price of students from families making $30-$48k a year. The net price is the sum of room and board, tuition, and fees minus any financial aid that that the student receives.
