CDE Career Institute
A good fit for students who want small classes and close faculty access and students from lower-income families. for-profit institutions have higher scrutiny — research carefully. 95% of students receive Pell Grants — strong access mission.
About This School
CDE Career Institute is a private for-profit institution located in Tannersville, Pennsylvania with approximately 308 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $29,396 per year.
Worth considering if you're looking for a small, focused career training environment — with just 308 students, you'll likely get more personal attention than at a large institution. The median debt at graduation of $9,500 is genuinely low, which is a real plus, but the $29,396 annual net price is steep for a for-profit school, so make sure the specific program you're entering has strong job placement data before committing. Ask directly about graduate employment rates and salaries in your field — that number matters more than almost anything else here.
