Outcomes Overview
ITI Technical College graduates earn a median of $68,342 ten years after graduation, creating a favorable debt-to-earnings ratio of just 22% with typical debt loads of $15,006. Monthly loan payments of $159 represent only 2.8% of median income, well below the recommended 10% threshold. The 95.2% employment rate reflects strong demand for skilled trades workers in Louisiana's industrial economy. Graduates typically enter automotive repair, welding, HVAC installation, and manufacturing roles where technical certifications command premium wages. While the 55.6% six-year graduation rate lags behind traditional colleges, completers see immediate earning potential in recession-resistant fields. ITI delivers a strong return on investment for students committed to hands-on technical careers.
