The Best Value Dental Support Services Undergraduate Certificate Schools in the Great Lakes Region ranking is one of many tools that Trade College Search has developed to help you make your educational decision. This report analyzed 68 schools in the Great Lakes Region to see which ones offered the best value undergraduate certificate programs for dental support students. The goal was to highlight schools with more affordable prices than others offering similar quality experiences.

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. 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.

Our calculations use out-of-state tuition and fees in our nationwide and regional rankings. Average in-state tuition and fees are used for our statewide rankings.
