Cost Comparison: Your Options

When it comes to becoming a medical assistant, you have choices. But not all paths offer the same value. Here's how the numbers compare:

Feature Las Vegas Medical Assistant School Community College University Program

Time to Career 18 weeks 1-2 years 2-4 years

Payment Plans Yes — flexible weekly payments Semester billing Semester billing
Earning Sooner In 18 weeks In 1-2 years In 2-4 years

The Real Cost of Waiting

Every month you spend in a longer program is a month you're not earning a medical assistant salary. Medical assistants in the U.S. earn a median salary of $42,000 per year. By completing your training in 18 weeks instead of 1-2 years, you could earn $42,000+ more during the time others are still in school.

Flexible Payment Plans

We offer payment plans that work with your budget — no student loans needed.

Pay in Full

Pay $5,090 upfront and save on payment plan fees. This is the most popular option for students who want to keep costs as low as possible.

Weekly Payment Plan

Start with a deposit of $950 and make manageable weekly payments. No credit checks, no interest — just a simple plan that fits your budget.

WIOA Funding May Be Available

Las Vegas Medical Assistant School is approved for WIOA (Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act) funding. If you qualify, your tuition may be partially or fully covered through government workforce development programs. Learn more about WIOA eligibility.

Enjoyed being a student at Las Vegas Medical Assistant School! Yes, there were Administrative changes during the months I attended but it was for a Positive Impact. The school helped me find my Externship and I passed the NHA -CCMA Certification on my first attempt! I worked a Full Time Job during School so having accessibility to attend Clinical Labs on Saturdays was Great, the Online coursework was very straight forward, easy to understand and 4 months to complete the Career was the best part. The School would provide me daily links to several Medical Assistant job offers after Graduation and now Thanks to their Academic Advisors, I'm Hired and excited to begin my Journey in the Medical Field! I definitely recommend this School for anyone wanting a new Medical Assistant career without having to leave their current employment. Thank you Las Vegas Medical Assistant School!! 💯 Read less

Graduated from LVMAS about 9 months ago. Going to this school was the best decision I made. I wanted a career switch but didn’t know if the medical field was for me, so I went to this school to become an MA. 9 months after graduation, I’m currently working at a hospital doing more than I ever thought I could have imagined. This school made me realize that dreams are still within reach, the instructors were so informative in passing the NHA. I wouldn’t have been able to get where I am now without the help of the school. So, thank you. Read less

This school was my best option financially and time efficient. Lab days are thoroughly explained prior to starting, so we know exactly what we'll be doing as well as what is expected from us by the end of lab. I would definitely recommend! Read less
