Health Care Professions
For-profit College in Houston, TX. Six-year graduation rate 75%. Median 10-year earnings $33,070.
Median earnings ten years after entry come to $33,070, below what most undergraduate institutions return — the central fact to weigh against cost here. Completion is a strength: 75% of students finish within six years. Median debt at graduation is $9,500, a light load against those earnings.

Academics
75% of students finish within six years, putting completion well above the national norm. First-year retention is 71% — the single largest point of attrition on this campus. A 37:1 ratio means students need to be deliberate about getting faculty time. This is a for-profit two-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 893 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 893 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Students pay $29,711 a year on average after aid, a premium price that the earnings data has to justify. The gap between the $0–30k and $110k+ bands is narrow ($29,729 versus $32,084), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. Grant aid reaches 79% of students at an average of $4,925. Borrowing is widespread: 73% 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.

|---|---|
| $0–30k | $29,729 |
| $30–48k | $29,916 |
| $48–75k | $30,916 |
| $75–110k | $35,295 |
