Texas Health School
For-profit College in Houston, TX. Six-year graduation rate 84%. Median 10-year earnings $30,187.
Ten-year median earnings of $30,187 are on the low side, which raises the bar for what this degree needs to cost. 84% graduate within six years, so most students who start here finish here. Graduates leave owing a median of $10,915 — modest by four-year standards.
Earnings: College Scorecard, median ten years after entry across students who received federal aid — completers and non-completers alike.
- ✓ Graduation rate 84% — well above the national average
- ✓ 3-year loan default 0.0% — below national benchmark
Academics
Six-year completion runs to 84% — students who start here overwhelmingly finish here. Retention is strong at 89%, and first-year attrition is where most degrees are lost. 16% transfer out. IPEDS does not follow them, so whether they finished elsewhere is not recorded either way. A 15:1 ratio points to small classes and accessible faculty. Being a for-profit two-year institution is the single most useful context for these numbers — the sector's spread is wide enough that the school-level figures matter more than usual.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 276 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Students pay $32,994 a year on average after aid, a premium price that the earnings data has to justify. Income makes less difference than usual: $31,494 at $0–30k, $33,590 at $48–75k. Grant aid reaches 73% of students at an average of $6,741. Most students borrow — 64% take federal loans to cover the gap.
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.
