Outcomes
College Scorecard field-of-study results for graduates who received federal aid. Fields are the broader 4-digit program family, so welding and machining share "Precision Metal Working". Earnings are medians for graduates working and not enrolled; cohorts lag several years. Scorecard reports outcomes under the school's federal aid ID, which can combine several branch campuses, so counts can exceed this campus's own graduates.
| Field | Credential | Median pay, 1 yr | Median pay, 5 yrs | Median federal debt |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Precision Metal Working (48.05) | Undergraduate certificate | $40,502 n=205 | $48,751 | $8,305 |
| Ground Transportation (49.02) | Undergraduate certificate | $44,773 n=169 | $52,051 | $6,650 |
School-wide College Scorecard measures (all programs, and all campuses that share the federal aid ID):
- Completion rate within 150% of normal time (first-time, full-time students, all programs): 65%
- Median earnings 10 years after entering, all students and programs: $39,846
- Median federal debt of completers, all programs: $7,685
