American Samoa
Community College
Public Community College in Pago Pago, AS. Six-year graduation rate 32%. Median 10-year earnings $30,087.
Students who entered American Samoa Community College reach a median of $30,087 a decade later, a figure that trails the typical four-year outcome. The six-year graduation rate is 32% — low enough that finishing cannot be treated as the default outcome.
Earnings: College Scorecard, median ten years after entry across students who received federal aid — completers and non-completers alike.
- ! Graduation rate 32% — below national average
Academics
Completion is the problem here: 32% graduate within six years. At 12:1, students get materially more instructor contact than at a typical public university. Judge these figures against other institutions of the same type — sector explains more of the variation in completion than any single campus factor. At 909 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 889 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price is $3,386 a year after grant aid — low for a four-year institution, though your own figure depends on aid eligibility. The gap between the $0–30k and $110k+ bands is narrow ($3,681 versus $4,065), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. About 78% get grants averaging $6,211, so plan on the possibility of paying closer to full price.
Entering first-year students
A different, smaller group than the rates above: full-time students in their first year of college anywhere. The grant series here also excludes the "other sources" counted in the all-undergraduate figure, so the two are not comparable.

Net price by family income
The same students as the headline above, limited to those who received Title IV federal aid — a narrower group, with a lower overall average. IPEDS publishes no combined figure across these bands, so they should not be averaged into one.
| Family income band | Average net price |
|---|---|
| $0–30k | $3,681 |
| $30–48k | $2,238 |
| $48–75k | $3,800 |
| $75–110k | $3,396 |
| $110k+ | $4,065 |
