About This School
Eagle Gate College-Layton is a private for-profit institution located in Layton, Utah with approximately 226 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $25,873 per year. The graduation rate is 38%, and the typical graduate earns $31,600 within 10 years of enrollment.
This school is best suited for students in the Layton area who need a career-focused, vocational path and prefer a very small, close-knit environment — but the numbers here deserve serious attention before you commit. The graduation rate is only 38%, meaning fewer than 4 in 10 students who start actually finish, and the freshman retention rate of 67% suggests many students are leaving after just one year, which is a real warning sign worth asking the school about directly. What concerns me most is the financial picture: graduates carry a median debt of $43,021 but are earning just $31,600 ten years after enrolling, which leaves very little room for comfortable loan repayment and puts this school at the harder end of the return-on-investment spectrum. If you do consider applying, I'd strongly encourage comparing this to community college options in Utah, which often offer similar vocational programs at a fraction of the cost and with cleaner outcomes data. Go in with clear eyes — this could work for the right student in the right program, but the debt-to-earnings ratio makes it essential to verify that your specific field of study leads to higher-paying local jobs before signing anything.
