Worth considering if you're looking to keep costs low and build a foundation before transferring — at just $6,643/year in net price and a median debt of only $8,251, this is one of the more affordable paths in the region. That said, the median earnings of $38,700 a decade after enrollment are modest, so think carefully about which program you choose and whether it ladders into a four-year degree or a field with stronger wage growth.
