An Intensive 18-Week Program

The training consists of an 18-week course designed to get you into the workforce quickly. The school states that payment can be made week by week and that the goal is for students to graduate without student debt. The admissions process has four steps: get informed and contact the admissions team, complete the application by choosing a start date and payment plan, pay a deposit that is applied toward tuition, and complete the program by following the school's guidance. According to the information published, students receive a free set of scrubs when classes begin.

Hands-On Practice in Medical Offices and Flexible Schedules

The school emphasizes that students learn and practice skills in a working clinical environment and can choose class times that fit around other responsibilities. The offering includes flexible start dates throughout the year, with multiple enrollment periods.

Career Support and Instructor Profile

Instructors are professionals who understand the daily operations of a medical practice and translate theory into practical skills. The school also offers clinics the opportunity to hire its graduates.

Industry Context and Cost of Training

The school positions its offering within the growth of medical assistant employment in the United States. It cites projections from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics pointing to 13% employment growth between 2025 and 2035, with a national median wage of $45,690 per year for this occupation. Compared with longer training paths financed through loans, the school offers an 18-week program with affordable tuition and flexible payment plans.

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. Rather than wait for traditional programs to change, he created a shorter one, taught in working dental offices and structured to be paid for without loans. His brother Ryan, a physician, ran into the same problem on the medical side, and the two collaborated on a medical assistant program built with the same accelerated, in-office approach.

Course Guide and Contact Process

The school offers a downloadable course guide with detailed information about the program, curriculum, career opportunities, tuition costs, and graduate testimonials. Admissions is handled by phone call, text message, or contact form, and the admissions team answers questions about eligibility. The next start date listed on the site is October 31, 2026, with Saturday classes from 1:30 to 6:00 p.m., and the school notes that seats are limited.
