Finding the Best Alternative Medicine & Systems School for You

In 2020-2021, 107 degrees and certificates were awarded to alternative medicine and systems students who went to a Colorado college or university. This makes it the #15 most popular major in the state.

It's not easy to decide which healthcare program to enroll in when you have so many options available. 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 help you arm yourself with the information you need to make your decision, Healthcare Degree Search has developed this Best Value Alternative Medicine & Systems Schools in Colorado ranking. This report analyzed 6 schools in Colorado to see which ones offered the best value programs for alternative medicine 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. More specifically, we discount our quality score by the published tuition and fees charged by a school. This gives the cost per unit of quality for each college. The value is determined by how much quality your dollar buys.

For nationwide and regional rankings, we use out-of-state tuition and fees in our calculations. Average in-state tuition and fees are used for our statewide rankings.
