How to read these numbers

Total Graduates counts the students who completed the Medical/Clinical Assistant. credential during the 2025 academic year, not those currently enrolled or applied. Programs of this size can be excellent — often with closer faculty contact — but the small cohort means year-over-year completion counts can swing significantly. The gender split is based on completers in this single award year and can shift meaningfully year to year — especially in smaller cohorts — so read the percentages as a recent snapshot rather than a fixed property of the program. Because every accredited college reports the same fields to IPEDS each year, you can compare American College of Healthcare and Technology-Santa Ana's figures against similar programs at other schools on a like-for-like basis.
