For-profit College in Draper, UT. Median 10-year earnings $61,480.
Ten-year median earnings of $61,480 are the headline number here, and they are strong ones. Debt at graduation runs to a median of $24,166, neither a bargain nor a burden.
Earnings: College Scorecard, median ten years after entry across students who received federal aid — completers and non-completers alike.

Academics
The federal six-year graduation rate is not published here — typically because the entering cohort this measure follows is too small or too atypical to report. Treat completion as unknown rather than assuming either direction. First-year retention is 71% — the single largest point of attrition on this campus. A 12:1 ratio points to small classes and accessible faculty. As a for-profit two-year institution, outcomes here deserve a harder look than the sector average suggests: for-profit institutions vary enormously, and the sector's aggregate numbers hide both strong and very weak performers. The undergraduate body is just 63, which shapes everything from class size to how often a required course is offered.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 63 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Students pay $28,871 a year on average after aid, a premium price that the earnings data has to justify. Net price varies modestly by income — $33,553 at $0–30k against $26,901 at $110k+ — so the average is a fair guide for most families. Most students get help: 98% receive grants worth $7,456 on average. Borrowing is widespread: 89% 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 | $33,553 |
| $30–48k | $28,582 |
| $48–75k | $21,356 |
| $75–110k | $24,558 |
| $110k+ | $26,901 |
