Costs for Competency-Based Bachelor's Programs as of 7/25/2020

If you're talking about competency-based masters and doctorates, the competency-based degrees are included above and there are no competency-based doctorates.

If you're just talking about a list of graduate degrees sorted by price, that is a tall ask. There are hundreds (thousands if you include international schools) of different degree programs out there and they can vary in price even within the same college. Even if you limit it to just online programs that is still a pretty huge list and would require a ton of research and time.

I made my own list of online doctoral programs based on the areas of study I am interested in and price range I am willing to consider, but I'm sure it is woefully incomplete because I still keep finding new schools to add to my list that meet my requirements. Even incomplete and highly focused, the list is still quite long.

Personally, I think doing the research yourself is probably ideal since while you're looking around the schools to collect the information you want you can also get a good idea of which schools appeal to you in other areas.

I have considered building a web crawler/scraper that could pull information off college websites to collect data on graduate degrees and pricing, but every college presents its information so differently. Digging around for stuff like pricing can require finesse so it would be a pain to figure out all the ways required to collect this info from each website. Plus you'd have to change it again each time they redesign their site. So I gave up on the idea... it was easier to just do it manually.
Working on: Debating whether I want to pursue a doctoral program or maybe another master's degree in 2022-23
