NSU Named Top School for Online Healthcare Administration
|
Posted By: Kennedy Williams on October 21, 2022 Norfolk State University has been named one of today’s best schools for online higher education in healthcare by EduMed.org. NSU’s online healthcare administration programs have earned top honors for their overall quality, affordability and commitment to student success. Take a look at the full rankings to see where NSU placed. Best Bachelor's Degrees in Healthcare Administration Online – https://www.edumed.org/online-schools/heal... “Our rankings showcase the schools giving future nurses and allied health professionals the best chance to succeed from day one in the classroom to day one on the job,” said Wes Harris, outreach coordinator for EduMed.org. “This starts with low-cost tuition, but also includes academic counseling, career placement and other key resources that students need to graduate and get hired.” EduMed.org’s rankings come at a time when the demand for trained healthcare professionals is on the rise. According to Mercer, a global consulting leader in healthcare, the U.S. will see millions of vacancies in critical healthcare positions by 2025. Nurse practitioner, nursing assistant and home health aide roles stand to experience some of the greatest shortages over the next three years and beyond. “One key to solving the healthcare shortage is making higher education more accessible,” said Harris. “Online programs open the door to students who may not be able to commit to a campus-based program while working, or to commute to a classroom at all. Each school in our rankings has made online learning a priority.” EduMed.org researched and analyzed more than 7,700 accredited schools using data from the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) and from the schools themselves. The website’s data science team then applied a proprietary algorithm to rank all qualifying schools for each healthcare discipline. Primary data points include: Academic counseling services Career placement services Student-to-faculty ratio Tuition Percent of students receiving school-based financial aid Amount of school-based aid per student To be eligible, a school must hold active regional accreditation and have at least one partially online program in the ranking subject. Just 8 percent of U.S. postsecondary institutions earned a ranking position.
