The school listings below are sorted by proximity to Programs. Each entry includes the school name, address, and the credentials offered. Use the Ohio figures above as a reference point when comparing program length, schedule, and tuition.

How we rank schools – graduation rate, graduate earnings, cost and retention. Advertising plays no part.

This page lists 12 schools within 70 miles, closest group first, then ordered by BOC Score with the highest at the top. 12 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.
