About This School

Worth considering if you're looking to keep costs low and start a career quickly — at just $4,550/year average net price and only $6,000 in median debt at graduation, this is one of the more financially responsible paths you can take. The tradeoff is that median earnings sit at $34,600 ten years out, which is modest, so think carefully about which program you choose and whether it aligns with fields that pay above that floor. A smart move for students who plan to transfer to a four-year school or enter a specific trade, but less compelling as a terminal degree if you're chasing higher earning potential.
