Ohio colleges that awarded Insurance credentials
8 colleges in Ohio reported conferring Insurance credentials to the federal IPEDS collection in 2023-24, and every one of them also awarded in the year before. 7 awarded a degree, and 1 awarded only a certificate. That is a record of credentials already awarded, not confirmation that a program is currently admitting.
Colleges and what they awarded
Largest first by credentials conferred in 2023-24. That order measures the size of the graduating class and nothing else: it is not a ranking, and the largest entry is often a certificate provider rather than the strongest degree program. The credential is labelled on every row for exactly that reason.
| College | Credentials awarded | Highest level |
|---|---|---|
| University of Cincinnati-Main Campus | 25 | Degree |
| Lorain County Community College | 9 | Certificate only |
| Ohio State University-Main Campus | 9 | Degree |
| Kent State University at Salem | 6 | Degree |
| University of Mount Union | 3 | Degree |
| Franklin University | 2 | Degree |
| Owens Community College | 2 | Degree |
| Ohio Dominican University | 1 | Degree |

Ohio colleges conferred 57 Insurance credentials in 2023-24, which is 2.7% of the 2,142 conferred across the 29 U.S. jurisdictions reporting any. Of the 8 colleges here, 7 awarded a degree and 1 awarded only a certificate. These counts measure the size of graduating classes, not program quality, and not how many students are currently enrolled.
What level those credentials were

Most Insurance credentials awarded in Ohio were bachelor's degrees. That is 28 percentage points more weighted toward bachelor's degrees than the field nationally, where they are 53% of credentials. A certificate is a different credential from a degree, not a lesser one, and the level a program awards is set by the program rather than by the student.
We measured how much this varies nationwide, and for most fields the credential level is set by the field rather than the state: is your major a certificate or a degree?
How concentrated it is. The single college with the largest reported graduating class in this field accounted for 44% of Ohio’s Insurance credentials. Activity is spread across several institutions rather than sitting with one.
What these Ohio colleges cost
Median net price across the 7 of these 8 colleges that report it, by family income. Net price is what students receiving federal aid actually paid for the WHOLE college after grants and scholarships, so it is not the price of a Insurance program specifically, and not a quote for any family.

What this evidence does and does not prove
This lists colleges that reported conferring credentials in this field to the federal IPEDS completions collection, in both 2022-23 and 2023-24. It does not confirm that any of them is currently admitting students to the program, and a college can appear here after deciding to close it. Confirm with the institution before it affects where you apply.
How this list was built
From the U.S. Department of Education IPEDS completions collection, matched to each college on its exact federal program classification. A college appears only if it conferred credentials in both 2022-23 and 2023-24, which is what separates a running program from one that has already closed.
This page exists because its list of colleges is materially different from that of every closely related field in Ohio — the fields a reader could otherwise mistake it for, such as two engineering disciplines, or nursing and practical nursing. Where a related field resolves to the same colleges, the second page would be the first one with its title changed, and CampusPin does not publish it. Sharing colleges with an unrelated field is different, and not a reason to withhold the page: in most states the same colleges award business, psychology and biology alike, which says something about the colleges rather than about the fields. We measured exactly how often that happens, and published the result: does choosing a major narrow your college list?
