2023 Best Value Clinical/Medical Laboratory Science Schools in the Southeast Region
Highlighting Quality Schools With More Affordable Pricing
Finding the Best Clinical/Medical Laboratory Science School for You
Clinical/Medical Laboratory Science is the #13 most popular major in the country with 18,901 degrees and certificates awarded in 2020-2021.
When it comes to higher education, there are a lot of options for healthcare students. You can choose a traditional brick and mortar school, or with the growth of online education, you can attend a school half-way across the country without even leaving your house. Also there are many trade schools that offer short-term programs that open up more career options.
Along with in-depth profiles of schools and the programs they offer, Healthcare Degree Search has created the Best Value Clinical/Medical Laboratory Science Schools in the Southeast Region to help you in your search for the best school for you. This report analyzed 217 schools in the Southeast Region to see which ones offered the best value programs for clinical laboratory science students. The goal was to highlight schools with more affordable prices than others offering similar quality experiences.
When determining this ranking, we place a high emphasis on the school's quality as well as its sticker price. Even though a college may be affordable, it may not offer value. 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.
Our calculations use out-of-state tuition and fees in our nationwide and regional rankings. For statewide rankings, we use average in-state tuition and fees.
