About This School

South Hills School of Business & Technology is a private for-profit institution located in State College, Pennsylvania with approximately 241 undergraduate students enrolled. South Hills School of Business & Technology has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 99%. The average net price after financial aid is $25,192 per year. Typical graduates earn $32,900 within 10 years of enrollment.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: with median earnings of just $32,900 a decade after enrollment, graduates don't earn dramatically more than the national median for workers without a degree, which raises real questions about return on investment at $25,192 per year. On the upside, the $12,000 median debt at graduation is genuinely low compared to most schools, which softens the financial risk if you complete the program. Worth considering if you want a focused, career-technical credential and a near-guaranteed acceptance, but research specific job placement rates for your program before committing.
