About This School
Commonwealth Technical Institute is a private nonprofit institution located in Johnstown, Pennsylvania with approximately 132 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $12,882 per year. Typical graduates earn $14,600 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: while the net price of $12,882/year is relatively modest for a private institution, median earnings of just $14,600 a decade after enrollment is a serious red flag — that's barely above poverty level and would make repaying even modest student loans a real struggle. Worth considering only if you're pursuing a specific trade or certificate program where local job placement data is strong, but ask hard questions about graduate employment outcomes before committing.
