About This School

Tidewater Tech-East Little Creek is a private for-profit institution located in Norfolk, Virginia with approximately 133 undergraduate students enrolled. In-state tuition is $16,337 per year. Typical graduates earn $31,657 within 10 years of enrollment.

This school is best suited for students who want focused, hands-on vocational training and prefer a very small, close-knit environment — with just 133 undergrads, you'll never be lost in a crowd. The relatively low median debt at graduation ($9,500) is genuinely good news and one of the more compelling reasons to take a closer look, especially compared to programs that saddle students with five or six figures of loans. That said, the median earnings of $31,657 a decade after enrollment give me pause — that's a modest return, and families should ask hard questions about which specific programs lead to higher-paying outcomes before committing. As a private for-profit institution, it also carries the scrutiny that comes with that designation, so I'd encourage you to talk directly to recent graduates and ask about job placement support. If you're pursuing a specific trade or technical credential and want to keep debt low, this could work — but go in with eyes open and a clear plan for where that credential takes you.
