About This School
University of Phoenix-Arizona is a private for-profit institution located in Phoenix, Arizona with approximately 85,991 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $13,520 per year. The graduation rate is 21%, and the typical graduate earns $54,900 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: while the $13,571 average net price is reasonable and the $54,900 median earnings suggest graduates can find decent work, a 20% graduation rate means 8 in 10 students who start don't finish — a serious red flag worth examining before enrolling. This school may work for highly self-motivated adult learners who need flexible online coursework and have a clear career goal already in mind, but traditional students or those who need structure and support should look elsewhere. If you're considering it, ask hard questions about what resources exist to help you actually complete the degree, not just start it.
