About This School

Ridge Technical College is a public institution located in Winter Haven, Florida with approximately 375 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $22,547 per year. Typical graduates earn $24,400 within 10 years of enrollment.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: with median earnings of just $24,400 a decade after enrollment, graduates are earning less than the $22,547 annual net price they paid to attend, which raises real questions about return on investment. This small Winter Haven campus of 375 students may offer a more personalized experience, but prospective students should carefully research specific programs and confirm their chosen field leads to stronger local wages before committing.
