About This School

UEI College-Gardena is a private for-profit institution located in Gardena, California with approximately 1,444 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $26,611 per year.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: median debt at graduation is a relatively modest $9,433, which is a genuine positive for a for-profit school, but the annual net price of $26,611 is steep for a short-term vocational program where earnings potential varies widely by trade. Worth considering if you have a specific career target that aligns with their programs and you've confirmed local employers actually hire their graduates — but do your homework, because for-profit colleges in this space have an uneven track record on job placement and credential value. Ask the school directly for program-specific completion and employment rates before committing.
