About This School
Northwest College-Beaverton is a private for-profit institution located in Beaverton, Oregon with approximately 37 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $17,862 per year. The graduation rate is 50%, and the typical graduate earns $25,600 within 10 years of enrollment.
This school is best suited for students pursuing a specific vocational or cosmetology-related credential who want a small, hands-on environment and plan to stay local in the Portland metro area. The relatively low median debt at graduation — just $7,564 — is a genuine bright spot, meaning students who complete the program won't be buried in loans. That said, I'd be straightforward with any family I'm advising: a 50% graduation rate means only half of students who start actually finish, which is a significant red flag worth taking seriously before enrolling. More concerning is that median earnings sit at $25,600 a decade after enrollment, which makes even a modest annual net price of $17,862 a tough value proposition when you do the math on return. My honest recommendation is to treat this as one option among several — compare it directly against community college programs in the same field, which may offer similar training at lower cost with stronger completion support.
