Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable, low-risk way to start college — graduates leave with just $5,500 in median debt, which is remarkably manageable. The tradeoff is that median earnings sit at $30,800 a decade out, so this is best suited for students planning to transfer to a four-year school or enter a specific local trade, not those counting on a significant income boost from the credential alone. At $7,025/year net cost, the financial risk is low, but be clear-eyed about where this degree takes you before enrolling.
