This is a strong option for students looking to minimize debt while building toward a transfer or career — the average net price of just $4,175/year and a median debt of only $5,639 at graduation are genuinely low, making financial risk minimal. That said, median earnings of $46,500 a decade out suggest this path works best as a stepping stone to a four-year degree rather than a terminal credential, so have a clear transfer plan before enrolling.
