About This School

Academy College is a private for-profit institution located in Bloomington, Minnesota with approximately 56 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $29,093 per year. The graduation rate is 36%, and the typical graduate earns $37,900 within 10 years of enrollment.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: a 100% graduation rate sounds impressive, but the 67% freshman retention rate means one in three students leaves before their second year — worth asking why. At $31,307 per year in net costs, you'd be taking on real financial risk for a degree that leads to median earnings of just $37,900 a decade out, which leaves little room for error. Worth considering only if this school offers a specific program that directly aligns with your career goals and you've exhausted more affordable or better-credentialed alternatives.
