Overall Quality Is a Must

A school that excels in educating for a particular major and degree level must be a great school overall as well.

• Major Focus - How much a school focuses on surgical technology students vs. other majors.
• Major Demand - How many other surgical technology students want to attend this school to pursue a associate 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.
• Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized surgical technology related body.
