A Quality Education at Morrison Tech is An Affordable Education
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When considering Morrison Tech, many students and parents might question if Morrison Tech is affordable. The return on your investment is an often overlooked, additional factor to consider.
Many colleges, in particular community colleges seem to offer lower initial costs but, have you considered their retention and completion rates? Community colleges provide a good example of schools with very low retention rates along very low graduation and placement rates.
Morrison Tech has established itself as one of the highest quality colleges based on its high retention rates, its high graduation rates and most importantly its high placement rate which exceeds 90%.
In our “Quick Facts” it is noted the average starting graduate salary exceeds $50,000. The payback period is defined as the time required to recoup money invested, the break-even point. A one year payback on a two year investment suggests an education at Morrison Tech affordable.
Our goal is to see its students complete their education and achieve employment opportunities for the future. That is why many of our graduates actually achieve higher starting salaries then many 4-year graduates.
In order to make these goals affordable, the college offers several financing options that are available to those students that qualify. Many of these options are grants and scholarships that do not need to paid back. Our Financial Aid office will work with each individual to determine the package of aid that will best suit your needs and also, if necessary, meet parent's financial obligations.
