Worth considering if you're looking to keep costs low and get into the workforce quickly — with a median debt of just $6,500 at graduation, students here avoid the financial burden that haunts many college grads. That said, median earnings of $36,300 a decade after enrollment are modest, so this school makes the most sense as a stepping stone to a four-year program or for career-focused programs in trades, healthcare, or technical fields where local job demand is strong. If you're expecting a degree here alone to significantly boost your earning power, temper those expectations and plan your path carefully.
