About This School

Northwest Technical Institute is a public institution located in Springdale, Arkansas with approximately 206 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $15,992 per year. Typical graduates earn $32,500 within 10 years of enrollment.

Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable, hands-on technical education — at $11,212 per year after aid, the cost is genuinely accessible. However, the median earnings of $32,500 a decade after enrollment are modest, so think carefully about your specific program and career goals before committing. The small 217-student enrollment means a tight-knit environment, but also limited program variety, so confirm your field of interest is well-supported here.
