Financial warning signs
Schools with financial warning signs in California
These schools have more than one financial concern in the data. Compare what students pay, what graduates earn, how much they borrow, and whether federal borrowers are paying on time.
| School | Value ScoreShows whether graduate earnings are strong compared with what students pay. A low score means students may be paying too much for the earnings they receive after completing the program. | Borrowers not paying on timeThis may be a sign that borrowers do not earn enough to repay their loans. A high late-payment rate can also increase a school’s financial risk, which in some cases could contribute to closure. | Net Price / YrWhat students typically pay each year after grants and scholarships. Your actual cost may be higher or lower. | Earnings / Yr 1 yr / 5 yrs after completion |
