San Bernardino Valley College is a public community college in San Bernardino, California. It is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges.

The numbers here tell a genuinely encouraging story for a community college: median debt at graduation is just $3,938, making this one of the more affordable ways to start a degree without taking on serious financial risk. At $8,234/year net price, it's a sensible choice for students in the Inland Empire looking to complete general education or transfer to a four-year school. The one honest caution is that median earnings of $32,000 a decade after enrollment suggest outcomes vary widely depending on whether students transfer or stop here — so come in with a clear plan.
