This is a strong option for students looking to minimize debt while building toward a transfer or career — graduates carry just $9,500 in median debt, which is genuinely low for any institution. The median earnings of $47,000 a decade out are modest but reasonable given that many students use this as a stepping stone rather than a final destination. Worth considering if you're cost-conscious and have a clear transfer plan to a four-year school, but if you're expecting a direct path to high-earning careers, research specific program outcomes carefully before enrolling.
