Schools and programs were evaluated based on publicly available information about accreditation, academic quality, student satisfaction, reputation in the field and cost. Hugo Saucedo, editor of the online guide, determined which were the lowest priced, highest quality, regionally accredited residential M.Ed. programs. LU’s College of Education and Human Development is accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education ().
“We believe this list offers a great starting point for students seeking an accredited, affordable, top quality program that suits their needs, and shines a spotlight on the listed programs,” Saucedo said.
“There has been much debate about the value and cost of education,” Saucedo said. “Often students leave college not only with a degree, but also saddled with a great deal of debt. The schools on this list are not only academically superior, but are also a superior value and offer students an opportunity for advancement in their careers. In addition, many of these programs hire experts in their given fields, which only enhances the value of the course offerings. This ranking covers every region of the United States and links potential students to well-researched program information.”
