21 Affordable Online Degrees: Masters in Teaching Best Buys
Looking for a way to go back to school online to become a teacher? Worried about how much that sort of career change might cost? The online education experts at Get Educated scoured the web to find the most affordable online teaching masters degrees from accredited universities across the US.
Check out these 21 "Best Buys" in affordable online degrees, all offering full Masters in Teaching degrees for less than $17,600.
Our online college affordability rankings compare tuition and distance learning fees at 43 different programs offered at online universities across the country. Better yet, all the schools we list are regionally accredited. Regional accreditation is the most difficult level of accreditation to achieve and the most respected among other universities and employers. Being ranked as a Best Buy indicates that the degree program has been independently reviewed and found to offer a high quality online degree at a cost well below the national average.
This is the ranking for the most affordable online teaching masters degrees. To appear on the Best Buy ranking list, the online degree profiled must cost less than the average cost for an online teaching masters degree from our data set. The costs shown are valid for Fall 2011 when the survey was conducted.

Note: These rankings for the most affordable degrees in Masters in Teaching are based off of a Fall 2011 Get Educated review of regionally accredited and regional candidate online degree programs. Tuition and fees (total costs) stated are valid for that time period (Fall 2011). Profiles for each distance degree in our online college directory may reflect slightly different costs based on a different update schedule.
The published cost is an estimated sticker price for the entire online masters degree and typically reflects the most affordable option. Actual costs will vary by student. Factors such as transfer credits at entrance, prerequisite requirements specific to each degree, and financial aid availability will affect your final purchase price.
Colleges do not pay to be included in these online university rankings. These rankings are editorially independent, open to any regionally accredited and regional candidate university which offers a degree that is offered at least 80% at a distance and open to the public. There is no cost to be included in the Get Educated online degree affordability ranking surveys or to use Get Educated award badges should your degree appear on these rankings.
If your online university is regionally accredited and not currently reviewed by Get Educated's most affordable online degree surveys, please contact us for inclusion. Each Best Buy list is calculated every two years. The next Best Buy rankings for online masters in teaching will be undertaken Fall 2013.
