About This School

College of Southern Idaho is a public institution located in Twin Falls, Idaho with approximately 3,476 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $7,005 per year. The graduation rate is 35%, and the typical graduate earns $33,700 within 10 years of enrollment.

College of Southern Idaho (CSI) is a public community college in Twin Falls, Idaho. It also has off-campus programs in Jerome, Hailey, Burley and Gooding. Together with the College of Eastern Idaho, College of Western Idaho and North Idaho College, CSI is one of only four comprehensive community colleges in Idaho.

Worth considering if you're looking to keep costs low while staying close to home — at just $7,005 per year in net costs and only $5,500 in median debt at graduation, this is one of the most affordable paths through higher education you'll find. That said, the 35% graduation rate is a real concern and worth taking seriously, as it suggests many students don't finish — so go in with a clear plan and strong support system. The $33,700 median earnings at 10 years out is modest, making this a better fit for students pursuing a specific local career path or planning to transfer than for those expecting a big income jump from the degree alone.
