Program Comparison Worksheet
Put up to three programs side by side.
Using the worksheet well
Fill it in from what each school tells you in writing: the cost of attendance page, the program page, College Scorecard, and your aid offer. Blank answers aren’t failures. They’re the questions to ask admissions before you sign anything.
Net cost per month lets you compare programs of different lengths. A shorter program with a higher monthly cost may still cost less overall, and gets you working sooner.
What it can’t tell you: whether a program is good. Completion rates, accreditation, and whether credits transfer matter as much as price. Our guide to vetting a school or program explains where to find each answer.
