Finding the Best Allied Health Professions Undergraduate Certificate School for You

In 2020-2021, allied health professions students earned 644 degrees and certificates from a South Carolina school, making the subject the 3rd in the state.

With all the healthcare programs available today, it can be tough to choose which one is the best for you. You're no longer limited to schools in your local area, either, since online programs are becoming more prevalent. Or you may find the programs at a trade school to be a better alternative for you.

To assist you in seeing some of the education options that are available to you, Healthcare Degree Search has created its Best Value Allied Health Professions Undergraduate Certificate Schools in South Carolina ranking. This report analyzed 10 schools in South Carolina to see which ones offered the best value undergraduate certificate programs for allied health students. The goal was to highlight schools with more affordable prices than others offering similar quality experiences.

This ranking is not just a list of inexpensive schools. We also consider each school's quality, since we believe a low-quality school may not be a 'bargain' at any price. Specifically, our score for quality is discounted by the published tuition and fees charged by the given college. This gives the cost per unit of quality for each college. The more quality your dollar buys, the better the value.

For nationwide and regional rankings, we use out-of-state tuition and fees in our calculations. For statewide rankings, we use average in-state tuition and fees.
