Choosing a Great Clinical/Medical Laboratory Science School for Your Bachelor's Degree
Your choice of clinical/medical laboratory science for getting your bachelor's degree school matters. Important measures of a quality clinical laboratory science program can vary widely even among the top schools. When choosing a school we recommend considering some of the following factors:
Quality Overall Is Important
The overall quality of a bachelor's degree school is important to ensure a good education, not just how well they do in a particular major. To account for this we consider a school's overall Best Colleges ranking which itself looks at a combination of different factors like degree completion, educational resources, student body caliber and post-graduation earnings for the school as a whole.
Average Earnings
To determine the overall quality of a graduate school, one factor we look at is the average early-career salary of those receiving their bachelor's degree from the school. This is because one of the main reasons people pursue their bachelor's degree is to enable themselves to find better-paying positions.
Other Factors We Consider
The metrics below are just some of the other metrics that we use to determine our rankings.
- Major Focus - How much a school focuses on clinical/medical laboratory science students vs. other majors.
- Major Demand - How many other clinical/medical laboratory science students want to attend this school to pursue a bachelor's degree.
- Educational Resources - How many resources are allocated to students. These resources may include educational expenditures per student, number of students per instructor, and graduation rate among other things.
- Student Debt - How much debt clinical/medical laboratory science students go into to obtain their bachelor's degree and how well they are able to pay back that debt.
- Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized clinical/medical laboratory science related body.
Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best colleges for clinical/medical laboratory science students working on their bachelor's degree.
