Grays Harbor College is a public community college in Aberdeen, Washington, United States. Established in 1930, the college sits on a 120-acre (0.49 km2) campus overlooking the town of Aberdeen and its seaport on the edge of the Pacific Ocean. Additional "learning centers" are located in Raymond, Ilwaco, North Aberdeen, and Southside Aberdeen.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: at just $3,149/year after aid and a median debt of $7,665, this is one of the most affordable college options you'll find anywhere. However, the 32% graduation rate is a real concern — most students who start here don't finish — and median earnings of $32,400 a decade out suggest the credentials earned may have limited earning power. Worth considering if you're cost-conscious, transfer-focused, or pursuing a specific vocational program, but go in with a clear plan and don't assume momentum will carry you through.
