Worth considering if you're looking to keep costs manageable — with an average net price of just $9,514/year and median debt at graduation of only $5,500, this school won't saddle you with a crushing financial burden. The trade-off is that median earnings 10 years out sit at $33,900, which is modest, so think carefully about which program you're entering and whether it has a clear pathway to higher-paying work in your field. This is a practical, affordable stepping stone — especially for students planning to transfer to a four-year school or enter a specific local trade or healthcare career.
