Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable path into the workforce or a stepping stone to a four-year degree — at just $7,779/year after aid, the cost is genuinely manageable. The satellite relationship with UNC Wilmington can smooth transfer for motivated students. That said, median earnings of $31,000 a decade out suggest graduates often end up in modest-paying fields, so think carefully about your specific program and career goals before enrolling.
