Bowling Green Medical Assistant School

Medical Assistant Training in Bowling Green, Kentucky

Bowling Green Medical Assistant School is a career training center specializing in preparing medical assistants. Its program is taught in real medical offices in Bowling Green and combines classroom instruction with direct practice on the equipment and tools used in daily clinical work. The school presents itself as a joint initiative between Zollege and local medical offices, so students learn in the same environment where the work takes place.

An Intensive 18-Week Program

The training is structured as an 18-week course designed to enter the job market without taking on student debt. The school offers flexible start dates throughout the year and various payment options, including installment plans, with the stated goal of allowing students to pay for their training week by week. Tuition includes a set of scrubs provided at the start of classes.

Admission in Four Steps

The admissions process is organized into four stages: learn about the program and contact the admissions team, complete the application by choosing a start date and payment plan, pay the deposit to reserve a spot — an amount that is deducted from tuition — and complete the program following the school's guidance. To enroll, you must be at least 18 years old and have a high school diploma or GED.

Practice in Medical Offices and Job Preparation

Classes take place in operating medical offices and are taught by experienced healthcare professionals. The school emphasizes that students practice skills in a real clinical environment with adaptable schedules. It also offers job search support that includes résumé reviews, interview tips, and guidance from job assistance specialists.

Student Profile and Career Outcomes

The program is aimed at people seeking a fast track into the healthcare field. The school cites data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics showing that medical assistant employment will grow 13% between 2025 and 2035, with a national median salary of $45,690 per year. The school also helps its graduates get hired by medical offices and offers a free course guide with information on the curriculum, career opportunities, tuition, and testimonials from former students.

Origin of the Project

Zollege was founded in 2010 as Vandelay Education by Dr. Thomas Ince, a dentist who couldn't find well-trained dental assistants to hire. When traditional programs didn't respond, he created a shorter model, taught in active dental offices and designed to be funded without loans. His brother Ryan, a physician, faced the same problem in the healthcare field, and both collaborated on a medical assistant program built with the same accelerated, in-person approach.

Admission Hours and Next Start Date

Admission hours, in Central Time, are Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM and Saturday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM; closed on Sundays. The school indicated a next start date of October 17, 2026, with classes on Saturdays from 1:30 PM to 6:00 PM, and noted limited seats. The school is licensed by the Kentucky Commission on Proprietary Education.
