Access around Holland is thinner than in the larger Michigan metros. The nearest college awarding this degree is roughly 23 miles away and 8 sit within 100 miles, which is the case where an online or low-residency program earns its keep.
The subject matter does not change by location: case management, human development, interviewing and documentation, ethics and confidentiality, community resources, and supervised field placement. What changes is how you take it. Ask each college whether the program holds accreditation from the Council for Standards in Human Service Education (CSHSE), how much of the coursework is delivered online, and which components require you on campus. Credit transfer is decided by the receiving institution and genuinely varies, so request a written transfer evaluation before you enroll.
This page lists 5 schools within 213 miles, nearest first in 25-mile distance bands, then by BOC Score inside each band with the highest at the top. 5 of them carry a score.
Scores come from IPEDS (2024) and the U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard. Earnings are for all graduates of a school, not one program, so treat them as a signal about the institution rather than about this subject. Sponsored listings are paid placements and are labelled as such; they are separate from this ranking and never change it. Read the full methodology.
