This is a strong option for students in the St. Louis Metro East area who want to keep costs low — at just $4,281/year after aid and a median graduation debt of only $5,500, it's one of the more affordable paths you'll find. That said, be clear-eyed about the outcome side: median earnings of $31,700 a decade after enrollment are modest, so this works best as a stepping stone to a four-year transfer or a targeted career program rather than a terminal degree. Worth considering if affordability and regional accessibility are priorities, but have a specific next step in mind.
