About This School
Northwest HVAC/R Training Center is a private nonprofit institution located in Spokane, Washington with approximately 49 undergraduate students enrolled. Northwest HVAC/R Training Center has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 83%. The average net price after financial aid is $16,737 per year. Typical graduates earn $38,000 within 10 years of enrollment.
Worth considering if you want focused, trade-specific training without taking on mountains of debt — graduates leave with a median $9,500 in student loans, which is genuinely low compared to most programs. The concern is that median earnings sit at $38,000 a decade out, so this is a solid skilled-trade career path, not a high-income trajectory — make sure that aligns with your goals. The tiny enrollment of 49 students means personalized attention, but also limited campus life and resources, so go in with clear eyes.
