About This School

Spartan College of Aeronautics and Technology is a private for-profit institution located in Tulsa, Oklahoma with approximately 744 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $31,544 per year. The graduation rate is 60%, and the typical graduate earns $51,300 within 10 years of enrollment.

Spartan College of Aeronautics and Technology (Spartan) is a private for-profit aviation college with its main campus in Tulsa, Oklahoma, United States. Satellite campuses are in Inglewood, California, Broomfield, Colorado, and Riverside, California. It was originally established to provide pilot and technicians for Spartan Aircraft Company but outlived its parent company and continues to train pilots and mechanics into the 21st Century. The main campus is adjacent to Tulsa International Airport, with another campus used for flight training at Tulsa Riverside Airport.

Worth considering if you're serious about a career in aviation — the campus sits directly next to Tulsa International Airport, and graduates earn a median of $51,300 ten years out, which is decent for a specialized technical field. The 60% graduation rate is a yellow flag, meaning a meaningful share of students who start here don't finish, so go in with a clear plan and strong commitment. The relatively low median debt of $14,726 is a genuine bright spot, but the $31,544 annual net price means you'll want to pressure-test your financial aid package carefully before signing on.
