Finding the Best Educational Administration Master's Degree School for You

Educational Administration is one of the most popular subjects to study in Minnesota. With 1,314 degrees and certificates handed out in 2020-2021, it ranked 3rd out of all the majors we track in the state.

With all the teaching programs available today, it can be tough to choose which one is the best for you. 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 Educational Administration Master's Degree Schools in Minnesota to help you in your search for the best school for you. Our analysis looked at 13 schools in Minnesota to see which master's degree 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.

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. Specifically, our score for quality is discounted by the published tuition and fees charged by the given college. This gives the cost per unit of quality for each college. The more quality your dollar buys, the better the value.

Our calculations use out-of-state tuition and fees in our nationwide and regional rankings. For statewide rankings, we use average in-state tuition and fees.
