About This School

Meridian Institute of Surgical Assisting is a private for-profit institution located in Nashville, Tennessee with approximately 788 undergraduate students enrolled.

Worth considering if you're set on a surgical assisting career — the median graduate debt of just $6,840 is impressively low for a specialized healthcare program, suggesting students aren't taking on outsized financial risk. That said, as a small for-profit school with under 800 students, you'll want to independently verify job placement rates and employer recognition before enrolling, since for-profit credentials can vary in how they're received by hiring managers.
