After analyzing 14 schools in Oregon, we came up with our list of those that offered the best value Associate Degree programs. Our ranking methodology focuses on different objective factors to make this determination of the best value schools.

To calculate the value of a school in our Best Associate Degree Colleges for the Money (Income Over $110k) in Oregon ranking, we first consider its average net price of students from families making over $110k a year. The net price is the sum of room and board, tuition, and fees minus any financial aid that that the student receives. In addition, the overall quality of a school is important to ensure a quality education, not just how much it costs.
