Is a health sciences degree a waste? (Trying to decide on a school)
#4
Are you wanting to become a registered dietitian? If so, then just get an undergraduate degree that is accredited by ACEND. If you want to become a PA, it doesn't really matter what your degree is in. Just make sure the prerequisites are covered. If you're interested in health IT, then WGU is probably the cheapest place you can go to. They offer a degree in health informatics that is accredited by CAHIIM. The only problem with WGU, though, is that their courses are pass/fail. You won't have a GPA.

I don't know if that graduation rate is accurate, but I'm sure that UMUC's graduation rate is low because it is a school that targets adult learners and the military.
