The Best Value Mechanic & Repair Technologies Associate Degree Schools in Kentucky ranking is one of many tools that Trade College Search has developed to help you make your educational decision. This report analyzed 5 schools in Kentucky to see which ones offered the best value associate degree programs for mechanic & repair technologies 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.
