Graduation rate is the percentage of institution’s new-entering, first-time, first-year undergraduate students who complete their program within 150% of the published time for the program. Graduation rate excludes a huge number of students. This index doesn’t take into consideration students of nontraditional enrollments - part-time students, students who enroll mid-year, and who transfer from one institution to another.

Student Reviews and Ratings for Pittsburgh Career Institute
Overall Rating:
Pretty good school. Ernie is cool.
Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™This school is nothing but a joke. They do not get back to students in a timely manner and they are very unprofessional. I had no problems with the teachers or staff everyone was very nice. I recently graduated from pci and have been asking for some of my student info and they are holding it from me saying that they "can't get into the file cabinet" when I told them multiple times that I need the information for work. I have been waiting for over a week now for this information and have emailed them multiple times and now I am being ignored. I am very displeased with the way they go about handling student issues. Big waste of time and money if you ask me.
