Worth considering if you're focused on a specific trade and want a small, hands-on environment — with only 140 students enrolled, you're not going to get lost in the crowd. That said, the $18,022 average annual net price is a real cost for a for-profit school, so before committing, make sure to research graduation rates and post-graduation earnings in your field to confirm the investment pays off. For-profit trade schools vary widely in outcomes, and this one's small size makes independent vetting especially important.
