A note about these outcomes

The same provider reports identical completion counts, employment counts, and median earnings on 1 other program profile. These may represent overlapping groups of students. The source export does not identify whether the groups are independent, so do not add their counts together.

Before you enroll

  • Ask the provider for current tuition, fees, supplies, schedule, and available seats.
  • Confirm admission requirements and which credential this specific program awards.
  • Ask how the reported outcome period compares with the current program.
