Why it is good
- Debt is manageable: graduates owe a typical $8,250 in federal loans against earnings of $43,665.
- Affordable: the average student pays about $3,919 a year after grants, cheaper than 87% of two-year colleges.
Why it is bad
- Many students leave early: only 52% of first-year students return for a second year.
The numbers
What these figures measure
Graduation rate: share of all students, full-time or part-time, who finish within 8 years. Return for year 2: share of first-time, full-time students who come back for a second year. Earnings: median pay about 10 years after starting, for students who received federal aid. Debt: median federal loan debt among those who finish. Net price: average yearly cost after grants and scholarships. All from the U.S. Education Department College Scorecard, institution file dated November 2, 2026.
