Finding the Best Rehabilitation & Therapeutic Professions Doctor's Degree School for You

In 2020-2021, rehabilitation and therapeutic professions students earned 479 degrees and certificates from a Kentucky school, making the subject the 4th 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.

Along with in-depth profiles of schools and the programs they offer, Healthcare Degree Search has created the Best Value Rehabilitation Professions Doctor's Degree Schools in Kentucky to help you in your search for the best school for you. This report analyzed 5 schools in Kentucky to see which ones offered the best value doctor's degree programs for rehabilitation 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.
