Only schools that CAAHEP or ABHES accredits show "Request information," which sends your request to them; we may be paid. Links in other rows lead to the school's own site. No school pays to get listed or to move up. Data comes from IPEDS 2023-24 (graduates and prices) plus directories from ABHES and CAAHEP.
Understanding this list: graduates, prices and accreditation
- CAAHEP-accredited program
- The medical assisting program itself got checked and approved by CAAHEP. Those who complete the program may take the CMA exam and become a Certified Medical Assistant.
- ABHES-accredited school
- ABHES gives approval to the entire school. Ask the school if its medical assisting program is covered too before you count on the CMA exam.
- Not CAAHEP or ABHES
- You will not find the school on either list for medical assisting, yet this is no verdict on the school. Another agency could still accredit the college itself. While RMA, CCMA and NCMA exams accept other routes like work experience, the CMA exam requires a CAAHEP or ABHES program.
- Classes held online
- You do coursework online, but clinical hours always happen in person at the school or a clinic.
- Price
- Each school reports tuition and fees for 2023-24, including books and supplies if listed: either for the whole program or one year of full-time classes (local student rate at public colleges). Each award the school lists shares the same yearly price.
- Graduates
- Graduates counted here finished between July 2023 and June 2024. The U.S. Department of Education runs IPEDS, a yearly survey giving these prices and graduate counts.
