Worth considering if you're looking for a small, hands-on vocational program — with only 148 students enrolled, you're unlikely to get lost in the crowd. The median debt at graduation is a reassuring $6,756, which is well below the national average, suggesting students aren't overborrowing to finish. That said, the $21,409 average net price at a for-profit institution warrants scrutiny — research job placement rates and salary outcomes carefully before committing, since for-profits vary widely in the value they deliver.
