About This School
Bennett Career Institute is a private for-profit institution located in Washington, District of Columbia with approximately 177 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $11,108 per year. Typical graduates earn $30,500 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: with a median net price of $11,108/year and remarkably low median debt of just $3,666 at graduation, the financial burden is unusually manageable for a private institution. However, median earnings of $30,500 a decade after enrollment are modest, so you'll want to be clear-eyed that this path likely won't lead to high salaries — make sure the specific program aligns with a career where that income level works for you. Worth considering if you need an affordable, low-debt option in DC and have realistic expectations about earning potential.
