Outcomes Overview
UTI graduates enter high-demand skilled trades with solid earning potential. The median debt of $13,124 creates a favorable debt-to-earnings ratio of just 0.25 compared to the $52,873 median salary after 10 years. Monthly loan payments of $139 represent only 3.2% of typical monthly income, well below the recommended 10% threshold. The 95.4% employment rate reflects strong industry demand for automotive technicians, diesel mechanics, and marine repair specialists. UTI's focus on hands-on technical training aligns with employer needs in growing sectors. Despite the modest 48% loan repayment rate, the low debt burden and strong job placement in recession-resistant trades make this a strong return on investment.
