About This School

Gateway Technical College is a public institution located in Kenosha, Wisconsin with approximately 4,759 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $12,928 per year. Typical graduates earn $32,400 within 10 years of enrollment.

Gateway Technical College is a public technical college in southeastern Wisconsin. It is one of the largest members of the state-run Wisconsin Technical College System, serving Kenosha, Racine, and Walworth counties.

Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable path into the trades or technical fields — at just $8,667/year after aid and a median debt of only $8,000 at graduation, you're taking on very little financial risk. The concern is that median earnings sit at $32,400 a decade after enrollment, which is modest, so be deliberate about choosing a program with strong local job demand rather than assuming any credential here will pay off equally.
