About This School

Minneapolis Community and Technical College is a public institution located in Minneapolis, Minnesota with approximately 5,268 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $13,812 per year. Typical graduates earn $37,700 within 10 years of enrollment.

Minneapolis College is a public community college in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It has one of the most diverse student populations in the state and enrolls nearly 11,100 credit students annually. Minneapolis College is part of Minnesota State, which offers two-year associate degrees, certificates, and diplomas.

Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable entry point into higher education — at $13,235/year after aid and a median debt of just $10,500, the financial risk is relatively low. That said, median earnings of $37,700 a decade after enrollment are modest, so this school makes the most sense as a stepping stone to a four-year transfer or a specific technical career rather than a standalone credential for high earning potential.
