Cost Overview
Most families pay far less than the $16,024 sticker price at this Houston vet tech school. Students from families earning under $30,000 pay just $13,631 after aid, while those from higher-income households ($110,000+) pay nearly the full amount at $19,784. Over two years, total costs range from about $27,000 to $40,000 depending on family income.
Graduates leave with a manageable $12,000 in debt on average. That translates to monthly payments of $127, which represents less than 5% of typical graduate earnings of $30,675 in the first year. The 95.2% employment rate means most students quickly find work in Houston's large veterinary market. Only 14% receive institutional grants averaging $5,873, but 54% qualify for federal Pell Grants.
Lower-income students get the best financial deal here, paying roughly one-third less than wealthy families while accessing the same career-focused training.
