About This School
Midwest College of Oriental Medicine-Skokie is a private for-profit institution located in Skokie, Illinois. Typical graduates earn $44,136 within 10 years of enrollment.
Students drawn to acupuncture, traditional Chinese medicine, or holistic health careers — and who are self-directed enough to thrive in a smaller, specialized environment — are the most likely to find real value here. The school's focused curriculum means you're not paying for a broad general education; you're investing specifically in Eastern medicine training in a suburban Chicago location with reasonable access to clinical and professional networks. That said, the financial picture deserves a hard look: median earnings 10 years after enrollment sit at $44,136, which is modest for the debt load that typically accompanies a graduate-level professional program at a for-profit institution. Before applying, I'd strongly encourage you to ask the school directly for its graduation rate and average loan debt at completion, since those two numbers, paired with that $44,136 earnings figure, will tell you whether this path is financially sustainable for your family. If you're passionate about this field, this school may be a legitimate option — but go in with eyes open, a clear budget, and ideally a conversation with a working graduate about what their first five years actually looked like.
