Ohio colleges that awarded Phlebotomy credentials

15 colleges in Ohio reported conferring Phlebotomy credentials to the federal IPEDS collection in 2024-25, and every one of them also awarded in the year before. 0 awarded a degree, and 15 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 2024-25. 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.

Ohio colleges conferred 222 Phlebotomy credentials in 2024-25, which is 3.0% of the 7,323 conferred across the 39 U.S. jurisdictions reporting any. Of the 15 colleges here, 0 awarded a degree and 15 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

  • Certificates: 100%, 222 credentials.

Most Phlebotomy credentials awarded in Ohio were certificates. The mix here is close to the national pattern for this field. 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 17% of Ohio’s Phlebotomy credentials. Activity is spread across several institutions rather than sitting with one.

What these Ohio colleges cost

Median net price across the 14 of these 15 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 Phlebotomy program specifically, and not a quote for any family.

By the kind of college

The figure above averages very different institutions together. Split by federal sector, for a family earning under $30,000:

Median net price for a family earning under $30,000, by kind of college, among Ohio colleges that reported awarding Phlebotomy credentials.
Kind of collegeCollegesMedian net price
Public two-year8$7,109
Public four-year6$4,709

Sector is the federal classification (IPEDS ICLEVEL and CONTROL). Private covers both nonprofit and for-profit colleges, which CampusPin does not split here because the for-profit sample in a single state is usually too small to publish a median. Each row needs at least five colleges reporting net price, so a sector with fewer is left out rather than estimated.

A family earning under $30,000 paid a median of $5,927 at these colleges, against $11,490 for a family earning over $110,000. Individual colleges vary widely around these medians. See every Ohio college by income band.

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 2023-24 and 2024-25. 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 2023-24 and 2024-25, 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?

What Phlebotomy graduates go on to do

Occupations the federal CIP–SOC crosswalk associates with Phlebotomy, ordered by projected annual openings. National figures: openings and pay do not vary by where you studied, and the crosswalk describes related fields rather than a required or guaranteed path.

Crosswalk: U.S. Department of Education (NCES), CIP 2020 to SOC 2018. Pay and projections: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (2024 wages, Employment Projections). “Most entrants hold” is what BLS observes about people already in the occupation, not a legal requirement, an admission rule, or a guarantee of entry. Projected openings are a projection, not jobs promised.

Questions about Phlebotomy in Ohio

How many colleges in Ohio awarded Phlebotomy credentials?
15 colleges in Ohio reported conferring Phlebotomy credentials to the federal IPEDS completions collection in 2024-25, 0 of them a degree rather than only a certificate. Together they awarded 222 credentials in the fields covered.
Does this mean these colleges currently offer Phlebotomy?
Not necessarily. Completions record credentials already awarded, so they confirm a program ran and graduated students. They do not confirm it is still admitting. Every college here also awarded in the prior year, which makes a closed program less likely, but confirm directly with the institution before it affects where you apply.
Is a college missing from this list?
Possibly. A new program with no graduates yet does not appear, and CampusPin matches the federal classification exactly rather than guessing, so a college filing under a neighbouring code is absent. Absence is never evidence a program does not exist.
