About This School

Edison State Community College is a public institution located in Piqua, Ohio with approximately 1,502 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $8,503 per year. Typical graduates earn $31,500 within 10 years of enrollment.

Edison State Community College is a public community college in Piqua, Ohio, United States. It was established as Ohio's first general and technical college in 1973. The college was named after Thomas Alva Edison. The college's main campus is located in Piqua on a 131-acre rural plain with additional campuses in Greenville, Troy, and Eaton.

Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable start in higher education — at just $8,503/year after aid and median debt of only $9,278, the financial picture is genuinely manageable. The concern is on the earnings side: graduates typically bring in around $31,500 a decade after enrolling, which is modest and worth weighing against your career goals. This is a practical, low-risk option for students pursuing a two-year degree or planning to transfer, but those aiming for higher-paying fields should map out a clear path beyond Edison.
