Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable start close to home — with a median debt of just $5,500 at graduation, the financial risk here is genuinely low. The 90% freshman retention rate suggests students who enroll tend to stick around, which is encouraging, but the 40% graduation rate means a lot of students don't finish, so you'll want to be intentional about staying on track. The median earnings of $33,100 a decade out are modest, so think carefully about which program you choose and what comes next after completing your degree.
