The numbers tell a mixed story here: at just $2,919 per year after aid, this is one of the most affordable college options you'll find, making it a smart starting point for students watching their budget or planning to transfer to a four-year school. However, the median earnings of $30,600 a decade after enrollment are modest, so if you're pursuing a career-focused credential, make sure the specific program you're entering has a clear pathway to higher-paying work. Worth considering as a low-risk, low-cost first step — just go in with a plan.
