About This School
Lincoln Technical Institute-Paramus is a private for-profit institution located in Paramus, New Jersey with approximately 495 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $41,121 per year. The graduation rate is 62%, and the typical graduate earns $29,600 within 10 years of enrollment.
Students who do best here are hands-on learners looking to enter a trade or technical field quickly, without the four-year college path — and if that's your situation, this school does offer focused training in a relatively small, manageable environment. The median debt at graduation is a genuinely encouraging number: $10,521 is low for a private institution, which suggests students aren't borrowing recklessly to attend. That said, the math gets harder to ignore when you factor in the average net price of $41,121 per year alongside median earnings of just $29,600 a decade after enrollment — that gap should give any family serious pause about return on investment. The 62% graduation rate also means roughly one in three students doesn't finish, so before enrolling, ask the school directly what support exists for students who are struggling. My honest recommendation: if you're considering this school, talk to recent graduates in your specific program about where they actually landed jobs and what they're earning, because the program you choose matters enormously here — the institution-wide earnings data may not reflect what's possible in a stronger-demand trade.
