Finding the Best Educational Administration School for You
Educational Administration is one of the most popular subjects to study in California. With 2,692 degrees and certificates handed out in 2020-2021, it ranked 4th out of all the majors we track in the state.
Today's teaching students have lots of options to pick from when considering higher education opportunities. 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.
To help you arm yourself with the information you need to make your decision, Teaching Degree Search has developed this Best Value Educational Administration Schools in California ranking. Our analysis looked at 49 schools in California to see which programs offered the best value experiences for education admin students with the aim of identifying those quality schools that are more affordable than some of their counterparts.
This ranking is not just a list of inexpensive schools. We also consider each school's quality, since we believe a low-quality school may not be a 'bargain' at any price. 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.
For nationwide and regional rankings, we use out-of-state tuition and fees in our calculations. Average in-state tuition and fees are used for our statewide rankings.
