About This School
KaiStar is a private for-profit institution located in Federal Way, Washington with approximately 151 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $9,444 per year. Typical graduates earn $29,400 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: while the median debt at graduation is a manageable $7,780, graduates are earning just $29,400 a decade after enrolling — a figure that raises real questions about return on investment for a for-profit institution. Worth considering only if the specific program aligns tightly with a clear career path and you've confirmed strong job placement rates directly with the school. The small enrollment of 151 students may mean limited resources and program options, so compare carefully before committing.
