About This School
Valley College-Martinsburg is a private for-profit institution located in Martinsburg, West Virginia with approximately 765 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $25,751 per year. The graduation rate is 66%, and the typical graduate earns $23,900 within 10 years of enrollment.
The numbers tell a mixed story here — a 58% graduation rate means nearly half of students don't finish, which is a real risk worth weighing before enrolling. On the positive side, median debt at graduation is a relatively low $9,418, but the median earnings of $23,900 a decade out raise serious questions about whether the credential translates into meaningful financial return. Worth considering only if this program directly aligns with a specific career goal and you've confirmed local employers actually hire from here.
