Fox Valley Technical College is a public technical college in Grand Chute, Wisconsin. It is a member of the Wisconsin Technical College System and serves people in the Appleton, Wisconsin/Fox Cities area.

It has credit transfer agreements with more than 30 four-year colleges and universities.

Worth considering if you want an affordable, career-focused credential without drowning in debt — graduates leave with just $5,834 in median debt, which is exceptionally low. The median earnings of $37,300 a decade out are modest but reasonable for the technical and trades programs this school specializes in, so your return on investment depends heavily on choosing a high-demand field. If you're eyeing a four-year degree or a path to higher earnings, this probably isn't your destination — but for targeted technical training at a low financial risk, the numbers are genuinely favorable.
