About This School

American National University-Pikeville is a private for-profit institution located in Pikeville, Kentucky with approximately 347 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $17,010 per year. The graduation rate is 50%, and the typical graduate earns $23,200 within 10 years of enrollment.

The numbers here raise serious concerns — a 0% freshman retention rate suggests almost no first-year students return for sophomore year, and a 50% graduation rate means you're essentially flipping a coin on whether you'll finish. Even if you do complete a degree, median earnings of $23,200 a decade later barely justify the $16,238 annual cost, though the relatively low debt of $10,814 at graduation does limit your downside risk. Worth considering only if you have a very specific program need that can't be met elsewhere and a clear plan to stay enrolled.
