What is the major difference between a diploma and degree in Dental hygiene?

Question

I am currently trying to figure out where to complete a Dental Hygiene program. College only offers a diploma, whereas at a University I can complete a Degree. Is there a major a salary difference? Also, do dentists prefer one over the other when hiring?

Any information would really help!

Answer 1

No not really, but a university degree is better than a diploma in the kind of training you get, college is private, university is backed by the government, some colleges may not be accredited

Answer 2

Degree is always valuable. You can do your PG after degree, if there is, but after diploma, you are stuck.
