About This School
Career Technical Institute is a private for-profit institution located in Washington, District of Columbia with approximately 370 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $19,920 per year. Typical graduates earn $32,500 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: graduates earn a median of $32,500 ten years out, which is modest but made more manageable by a relatively low median debt of $7,074 at graduation. Worth considering if you're focused on a specific trade or technical skill and want to minimize borrowing, since the debt load is genuinely low compared to many for-profit schools. That said, the earnings ceiling looks limited, so think carefully about whether the credential you're pursuing actually commands higher pay in your local market before enrolling.
