Coffeyville Community College
Public Community College in Coffeyville, KS. Six-year graduation rate 38%. Median 10-year earnings $35,246.
Ten-year median earnings of $35,246 are on the low side, which raises the bar for what this degree needs to cost. Completion is the weak point: 38% graduate within six years. Graduates leave owing a median of $8,103 — modest by four-year standards. It also moves people — 3.9% of students climb from the bottom fifth of the income distribution to the top.
Earnings: College Scorecard, median ten years after entry across students who received federal aid — completers and non-completers alike.
- ✓ Debt-to-income ratio 0.23 — healthy (below the 0.40 threshold)
- ✓ 3-year loan default 0.0% — below national benchmark
Academics
A six-year graduation rate of 38% means finishing is closer to the exception than the rule. Just 55% of first-years come back — most of the completion gap opens in year one. The two rates sit near each other: few students who return for a second year are missing from the six-year completion figure. A 25% transfer-out rate accounts for part of that gap: those students left for another institution rather than dropping out, and the graduation rate above counts them as non-completers here. Part-time students fare worse, returning at 28% — relevant if you plan to work while enrolled.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 870 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
At $6,315 a year on average after grant aid, cost is low here relative to most undergraduate institutions. The gap between the $0–30k and $110k+ bands is narrow ($2,793 versus $9,592), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. 88% of students get grant aid averaging $6,553, so the published price is a poor guide to what most pay. Federal borrowing reaches 36% of students.
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.

| $0–30k | $2,793 |
| $30–48k | $4,425 |
| $48–75k | $5,860 |
