About This School

Pacific College of Health and Science is a private for-profit institution located in San Diego, California with approximately 173 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $39,710 per year. The graduation rate is 67%, and the typical graduate earns $28,300 within 10 years of enrollment.

The Pacific College of Health and Science is a private for-profit institution focused on traditional medicine and integrative health science education. Founded in 1986, it was originally known as Pacific College of Oriental Medicine. The college's main campus is located in New York.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: the 67% graduation rate is passable, but median earnings of $28,300 a decade after enrollment are a real concern when you're paying roughly $39,710 per year in net costs. The relatively low median debt of $9,500 at graduation is a bright spot, suggesting many students avoid heavy borrowing — but that only helps if you finish and land well-paying work in your field. Worth considering only if you've confirmed strong local job placement in your specific program, since the general earnings data doesn't inspire confidence for the price.
