About This School
Carrington College-Las Vegas is a private for-profit institution located in Las Vegas, Nevada with approximately 396 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $43,570 per year. The graduation rate is 50%, and the typical graduate earns $27,200 within 10 years of enrollment.
Students drawn to healthcare and vocational training in the Las Vegas area may find this school worth a look, but the financial picture here deserves serious scrutiny before you commit. The median debt at graduation is a relatively manageable $9,500, which is genuinely lower than many for-profit schools — that's a real positive. The concern, though, is that graduates are earning a median of just $27,200 ten years after enrolling, while the net price runs $43,570 per year, meaning the total cost of attendance could far outweigh the earning power this credential actually delivers. The 50% graduation rate also means there's a real chance you pay significantly without finishing, which is a risk worth sitting with honestly. My practical advice: before applying, call the admissions office and ask specifically which programs have the strongest job placement rates and whether those local employers actually hire their graduates — the answer will tell you a lot about whether this school is the right fit for your goals.
