Finding the Best Rehabilitation & Therapeutic Professions School for You

In 2020-2021, rehabilitation and therapeutic professions students earned 957 degrees and certificates from a Wisconsin school, making the subject the 2nd in the state.

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.

To assist you in seeing some of the education options that are available to you, Healthcare Degree Search has created its Best Value Rehabilitation Professions Schools in Wisconsin ranking. Our analysis looked at 14 schools in Wisconsin to see which programs offered the best value experiences for rehabilitation students with the aim of identifying those quality schools that are more affordable than some of their counterparts.

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.
