About This School

Milwaukee Area Technical College is a public institution located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin with approximately 11,362 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $9,589 per year. Typical graduates earn $33,500 within 10 years of enrollment.

Milwaukee Area Technical College is a public two-year vocational-technical and community college based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States. MATC offers day, evening, weekend and online classes at campuses in downtown Milwaukee, Oak Creek, West Allis, and Mequon as well as an education center in the Walker's Square neighborhood on Milwaukee's near south side.

Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable path to a vocational or technical career — at just $9,589/year average net price and a median debt of only $9,248, you won't leave buried in loans. That said, the median earnings of $33,500 a decade out are modest, so this school makes the most sense if you're targeting a specific in-demand trade or planning to transfer, rather than expecting a big salary bump from a general degree alone.
