About This School
Modern Welding School is a private for-profit institution located in Schenectady, New York with approximately 69 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $24,257 per year. Typical graduates earn $44,200 within 10 years of enrollment.
Worth considering if you want a focused, hands-on trade education with remarkably low debt — graduates leave with just $5,500 in median debt, which is a standout figure compared to most programs. The small enrollment of 69 students suggests a tight-knit, personalized environment, and the $44,200 median earnings at 10 years is a livable outcome for a skilled trade. That said, the $24,257 annual net price feels steep for a single-trade school, so make sure you're clear on how many years the program runs and what financial aid you can realistically expect before committing.
