About This School
Lincoln College of Technology-Nashville is a private for-profit institution located in Nashville, Tennessee with approximately 967 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $32,544 per year. The graduation rate is 66%, and the typical graduate earns $38,200 within 10 years of enrollment.
This school is best suited for students who want hands-on technical training and are committed to entering the workforce quickly in a skilled trade or technology field. The relatively low median debt at graduation — just $11,730 — is genuinely good news and suggests students aren't leaving buried in loans, which matters a lot when you're starting out. That said, the math deserves a hard look: at $32,544 per year in net costs, you're spending significantly more than you'll likely earn back quickly, given median earnings of $38,200 ten years after enrollment — that's not a strong return for a four-plus year financial commitment. The 66% graduation rate also means roughly one in three students who start here don't finish, so ask yourself honestly whether you have the support system and motivation to be in that completing group. My practical advice: before enrolling, sit down with the financial aid office and get the total cost in writing, then compare this program side-by-side with a local community college offering a similar technical credential — you may find comparable outcomes at a fraction of the price.
