The numbers tell a reasonably encouraging story here: at just under $10,300/year after aid and median debt of roughly $9,933, this is one of the more affordable paths to a credential in Minnesota. That said, median earnings of $34,000 a decade out are modest, so this makes the most sense if you're targeting a specific local career or trade rather than expecting a big income boost. Worth considering if you want low debt and a small, accessible campus — just go in with clear eyes about where the degree is likely to take you financially.
