Arizona College
of Nursing-Las Vegas
For-profit College in Las Vegas, NV. Six-year graduation rate 82%. Median 10-year earnings $34,657.
Median earnings ten years after entry come to $34,657, below what most undergraduate institutions return — the central fact to weigh against cost here. The six-year graduation rate of 82% is well above average and the clearest sign this school holds onto its students. Median debt at graduation is $9,500, a light load against those earnings.

Admissions
Admission is not the constraint here: 100% of applicants are accepted. The applicant pool is small at 41, which makes year-over-year comparisons unreliable. A 93% yield rate puts this school in the upper range for admits who follow through.
Test score bands (middle 50% of submitters)
These bands describe the enrolled first-years who submitted a score, not the entering class. Where most students apply test-optional the submitters are a self-selected, higher-scoring group.

Academics
Six-year completion runs to 82% — students who start here overwhelmingly finish here. 77% of full-time first-years come back for year two, so about one in four are gone before sophomore year. At 20:1, class sizes land in the normal range for an undergraduate institution. This is a for-profit four-year institution. That is not disqualifying, but it does mean verifying accreditation, transferability of credits, and job-placement claims directly rather than trusting the category. At 1,154 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 1,154 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Average net price — what students actually pay after grant aid — is $30,706 a year, at the high end of undergraduate cost. Income makes less difference than usual: $27,962 at $0–30k, $35,587 at $110k+. 55% of students receive grant aid, averaging $6,324 — common but not automatic. Borrowing is widespread: 79% take federal loans.
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 | $27,962 |
| $30–48k | $28,803 |
| $48–75k | $29,794 |
| $75–110k | $35,051 |
| $110k+ | $35,587 |
