Outcomes Overview
Northeast Wisconsin Technical College graduates carry a median debt of $11,719, creating a debt-to-earnings ratio of just 26% when measured against the $44,553 median salary after ten years. Monthly loan payments of $124 represent only 3.4% of typical graduate income. The college's strong 96.8% employment rate reflects strong employer demand for skilled technicians in manufacturing, healthcare, and trades throughout Green Bay's industrial corridor. With nearly all graduates finding work immediately and debt levels well below the national average for two-year programs, NWTC delivers excellent value. The combination of low borrowing costs and reliable job placement in Wisconsin's growing technical sectors makes this a strong return on investment.
