MedicalAssistantDegrees.net helps prospective students compare medical assistant programs. We profile programs school by school and organize them by state and by certification.
What We Cover
- Program profiles: accreditation, credentials offered, format, length, cost and published outcomes for each school.
- State guides: every profiled school in a state, plus each CAAHEP- and ABHES-accredited program there.
- Certification guides: eligibility, exam, cost and renewal for the CMA, RMA, CCMA, NCMA and CMAA.
How Profiles Are Researched
Every figure comes from a primary source: the school’s catalog, program page, tuition and fee schedule, or the CAAHEP and ABHES directories. Outcomes (exam pass, job placement, retention) are reported as the program publishes them, with the years covered. Certification details come from the issuing organization: AAMA, AMT, NHA or NCCT.
How Costs Are Estimated
Many schools publish a per-credit rate but no program total. In those cases we multiply the rate by the program’s credit hours, add published fees, and mark the result “est.” with a one-sentence note on the method. When a school publishes its own total, we use it.
Corrections and Updates
Tuition, fees and accreditation status change. If you see an error, contact us with a link to the school’s current published source. We verify corrections before updating a profile.
We don’t handle admissions. For applications, start dates or financial aid, contact the school directly.
