Finding the Best Educational Administration Graduate Certificate School for You

Educational Administration is one of the most popular subjects to study in Florida. With 1,764 degrees and certificates handed out in 2020-2021, it ranked 2nd 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 assist you in seeing some of the education options that are available to you, Teaching Degree Search has created its Best Value Educational Administration Graduate Certificate Schools in Florida ranking. This report analyzed 9 schools in Florida to see which ones offered the best value graduate certificate programs for education admin students. The goal was to highlight schools with more affordable prices than others offering similar quality experiences.

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.
