About This School
Avalon Institute-Layton is a private for-profit institution located in Layton, Utah with approximately 186 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $16,501 per year. The graduation rate is 73%, and the typical graduate earns $23,000 within 10 years of enrollment.
Students drawn to vocational or cosmetology-style training who want to keep debt low will find some appeal here — the median debt at graduation is just $6,332, which is genuinely low compared to most private institutions. That said, the earnings picture is a serious concern: graduates are earning a median of $23,000 ten years after enrollment, which is below the threshold most financial advisors consider a sustainable return on a college investment. The 73% graduation rate is decent for this type of school, but paired with those earnings, it suggests students who do finish still face a tough financial road ahead. If your family is considering this program, I'd strongly encourage exploring whether a local community college or apprenticeship offers similar training at comparable or lower cost, potentially with better regional employer connections. Before applying, ask the school directly for job placement rates and employer names — if they can't produce that information clearly, that tells you something important.
