Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable community college path in the San Fernando Valley — median debt at graduation is a manageable $12,678, which is well below the national average. That said, median earnings of $37,000 a decade after enrollment are modest, so think carefully about which transfer or career pathway you pursue here, since outcomes vary significantly by program. This is a solid launching pad for students who plan to transfer to a four-year school, but less compelling as a terminal degree if your goal is a major income boost.
