About This School
Galen Health Institutes-Dallas is a private for-profit institution located in Richardson, Texas with approximately 1,153 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $30,998 per year. Typical graduates earn $44,400 within 10 years of enrollment.
Students drawn to healthcare careers in the Dallas-Fort Worth area may find this school's focused, career-oriented programs appealing, but the data here warrants a serious conversation before you commit. The most concerning signal is the 48% freshman retention rate — meaning roughly half of students who start here don't return for their second year, which suggests the program may not be the right fit for many who enroll, or that students face significant obstacles along the way. On the financial side, the picture is mixed: the $24,166 median debt at graduation is relatively manageable, but with median earnings of just $44,400 a decade after enrollment, you'll want to map out exactly what your salary trajectory looks like in your specific field before signing anything. My honest recommendation is to contact the admissions office and ask directly why so many students leave and what support systems exist to help you finish — their answer will tell you a lot about whether this institution is invested in student success or just enrollment numbers.
