About This School
Platt College-Anaheim is a private for-profit institution located in Anaheim, California with approximately 498 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $22,678 per year. The graduation rate is 64%, and the typical graduate earns $37,300 within 10 years of enrollment.
Students drawn to hands-on, career-focused training in creative or technical fields — and who want a smaller, more structured environment than a big university — may find this a workable fit, but the numbers deserve a hard look before you commit. At $22,678 per year in net costs, you're taking on real financial exposure, and the median earnings of $37,300 a decade after enrollment means graduates are not exactly landing in high-earning careers — that's a tight margin when you factor in repayment, even with a relatively modest median debt of $18,685. The 64% graduation rate is also worth flagging: more than one in three students who start here don't finish, which raises fair questions about student support and whether the program is structured for success. If you're considering this school, I'd strongly encourage visiting in person, talking to recent graduates about their actual job placements, and asking the financial aid office for a personalized loan repayment estimate before signing anything. There are likely lower-cost paths — community college, state schools, or comparable programs — that could get you to a similar career outcome without the same financial risk.
