It’s the end of the year and time for Top 10 lists.
This one, from College Choice, ranks the most affordable online colleges for a bachelor’s degree.
Brigham Young University-Idaho, Rexburg, tops the list,
which is based on the total cost to earn the online degree. The cost of tuition
at BYU-Idaho is $125 for each credit earned, with Fort Hays State University,
Hays, KS, second at $186.50 per tuition credit.
The schools were ranked by tuition per credit for the typical
120-credit requirement at most institutions. Information was gathered from
school websites and other publicly available sources. The ranking also includes
fees that were readily available on the websites.
“When considering where one can obtain an online
bachelor’s degree that will work within a budget, this list will provide a
definitive guide to figuring total costs,” Katie Amondson, editor of the
ranking, told eCampus News.
