Compare the cost of completing this degree
Start with the program requirements and the tuition rate that applies to your situation. A price per credit is only one part of the comparison: required fees, accepted transfer credits, and any campus attendance can change your budget.
What to check with each school
Ask for an evaluation of your previous credits, a list of required fees, and confirmation that the program is available where you live. Use the school’s official program and tuition pages to check any quoted cost.
