Chief Dull Knife College graduates earn a median of $35,634 five years after graduation. With the same tuition rate of $2,260 for all students and zero federal loan borrowing, graduates typically leave debt-free. The average net price of $9,594 reflects living expenses in rural Montana rather than student loans. Most graduates earn above the poverty line for the region, though below national averages. The college prepares students for careers in tribal administration, natural resources, and healthcare support roles that serve Northern Cheyenne communities. Women comprise 74% of students, often pursuing human services and education pathways. Starting debt-free with steady regional employment prospects represents a strong return on investment for this tribal college.
