Editing Choosing The Right College or University (section)

== What is your budget? ==

This can be the biggest driving factor for most students. If your budget is only $9,000 but the degree you want will cost around $10,000, you may have to choose a different degree or a different school. For most students, UMPI is going to be the cheapest way to go because it's possible to finish a degree there for under $5,000. Pierce probably going to be one of the more expensive options, costing up to $20,000 for some degrees. The others are going to fall in between, at $5,000-$10,000 depending on the degree chosen.
