Outcomes Overview
Graduates earn a median of $32,194 ten years after leaving, which creates a challenging debt-to-earnings ratio given the $15,323 average net price. Monthly loan payments would consume roughly 15-20% of typical graduate income. The 85.4% employment rate shows strong job placement in Memphis's manufacturing and logistics sectors. Most graduates enter skilled trades like HVAC, automotive repair, and industrial maintenance where demand remains steady. The college's focus on hands-on technical training aligns with regional employer needs. However, the relatively low median earnings compared to program costs suggest a weak return on investment, especially when compared to community college alternatives offering similar technical certifications at lower prices.
