Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable path to a credential — at just $4,477/year net price and a median debt of only $7,199 at graduation, the financial risk here is genuinely low. That said, the median earnings of $28,800 a decade after enrollment are modest, so think carefully about which program you're pursuing and whether it leads to a clear career or transfer pathway. This is a solid, low-cost option for students with a specific plan, less so for those still figuring it out.
