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 | $40,580 n=840 | $49,225 | $9,403 |
| Ground Transportation (49.02) | Undergraduate certificate | $41,745 n=830 | $41,510 | $6,333 |

- Median earnings 10 years after entering, all students and programs: $37,239
