Associate of Applied Science in Medical Office Management

Gain the right skills to keep a health care facility running smoothly.
The medical office management program provides a comprehensive education that focuses on helping students acquire knowledge and develop skills in administrative and clerical procedures. Be part of an expert team by working with patient medical records, medical documents, and other medical office matters. In addition to the online program, you will complete an unpaid externship in a physician's office or clinic. Graduates are eligible to take the Certified Medical Administrative Specialist (CMAS) test, given by the American Medical Technologists.†

Please note that students in the medical office management program are required to complete an unpaid externship for a total of 90 hours. Students must be able to accommodate the externship in their weekly schedules. Some sites may not allow students to complete the externship during the evening or on weekends, so it may be necessary to complete the requirements Monday through Friday during regular business hours. 

Students must complete all coursework, achieve a minimum grade of "C" or better in each major and core course, and maintain a cumulative GPA of 2.5 to graduate.

†Although the program is designed to prepare students for various certification and licensing examinations, the University cannot guarantee students will pass the exams.
