When determining the value of a school in our Best Doctor's Degree Colleges for the Money (Income $30-$48k) in Kansas ranking, we first look at its average net price of a student coming from a family that makes $30-$48k a year. The net price is defined as the sum of room and board, tuition, and fees minus any financial aid that the student receives. In addition, the overall quality of a school is important to ensure a good education, not just how much it costs.
