Cost Overview

Families typically pay around $24,372 per year after financial aid, though costs vary by income level. Those earning under $30,000 pay about $25,182 annually, while middle-income families ($30,000-$48,000) get the best deal at $23,513 per year. Over four years, students can expect to spend roughly $97,500 total.

Most graduates leave with $26,123 in debt, translating to monthly payments of $277. That's manageable against median starting salaries of $55,439, though only 25% of borrowers successfully repay their loans. The school primarily serves working adults in healthcare and business programs through its quarter system. Just over half of students receive federal aid, with 51% qualifying for Pell Grants.

Middle-income Virginia families get the strongest value proposition here, paying nearly $2,000 less annually than other income brackets while accessing career-focused programs designed for the local job market.
