About This School

Ranger College is a public institution located in Ranger, Texas with approximately 935 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $6,565 per year. Typical graduates earn $33,800 within 10 years of enrollment.

Ranger College is a public community college in Ranger, Texas. The college's website asserts that it "is one of the oldest public two-year colleges in continuous operation in the state of Texas." In conjunction with its main campus in Ranger, the college maintains several satellite campuses across Erath County and Brown County, Texas. Ranger College provides dual-credit courses to over 40 area school districts.

Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable two-year start — at just $6,565/year average net price and a median graduation debt of only $5,792, the financial risk here is genuinely low. That said, median earnings of $33,800 a decade out suggest this is best used as a stepping stone toward a four-year degree or a specific trade credential, not a terminal destination. For local students in Erath or Brown County especially, the satellite campuses and dual-credit options make it a practical, low-cost way to get college credits without uprooting your life.
