Note: Online degree rankings are based on GetEducated's Spring 2008 survey of affordable master's degrees in engineering.

We compared and ranked publicly posted tuition rates at 67 distance-learning computer programs offered through regionally accredited universities in the U.S. Tuition rates are for the entire master's degree and reflect the least expensive option. Actual costs vary by student.

Some programs may require campus residencies and additional fees. Some programs may be restricted to residents of selected states. Costs other than tuition are not typically reflected in the above rates.

GetEducated's affordable online masters' surveys are conducted every two years.
