About This School

Spartan College of Aeronautics and Technology is a private for-profit institution located in Broomfield, Colorado with approximately 397 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $30,065 per year. Typical graduates earn $51,800 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 set on an aviation or aeronautics career — the median debt at graduation is a relatively manageable $14,750, and graduates earn a median of $51,800 ten years out, which is a reasonable return for a specialized technical degree. That said, the $30,922 annual net price is steep for a small for-profit school with only 321 students, so make sure you're getting strong career placement support and accreditation that employers in your target field will respect. Do your homework on job placement rates before committing.
