Finding the Best Curriculum & Instruction School for You

In 2020-2021, curriculum and instruction students earned 196 degrees and certificates from a South Carolina school, making the subject the 8th in the state.

It's not easy to decide which teaching program to enroll in when you have so many options available. You can choose a traditional brick and mortar school, or with the growth of online education, you can attend a school half-way across the country without even leaving your house. Also there are many trade schools that offer short-term programs that open up more career options.

Along with in-depth profiles of schools and the programs they offer, Teaching Degree Search has created the Best Value Curriculum & Instruction Schools in South Carolina to help you in your search for the best school for you. Our analysis looked at 6 schools in South Carolina to see which programs offered the best value experiences for curriculum students with the aim of identifying those quality schools that are more affordable than some of their counterparts.

When determining this ranking, we place a high emphasis on the school's quality as well as its sticker price. Even though a college may be affordable, it may not offer value. More specifically, we discount our quality score by the published tuition and fees charged by a school. This gives the cost per unit of quality for each college. The value is determined by how much quality your dollar buys.

Our calculations use out-of-state tuition and fees in our nationwide and regional rankings. Average in-state tuition and fees are used for our statewide rankings.
