Worth considering if you're looking to keep costs low while staying close to home — with a median debt of just $4,727 at graduation, this school is one of the more financially sensible starting points in Tennessee. The tradeoff is that median earnings sit at $34,800 a decade out, which is modest, so think carefully about how your specific program connects to a career path before enrolling. This is a solid fit for students planning to transfer to a four-year school or enter a trade-focused field, but less ideal if you're expecting a quick jump to a high-earning career straight from graduation.
