Graduation Rate

The graduation rate value includes only programs that were completed less than six years for four-year degrees or less than three years for two-year degrees.
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 indicator doesn’t take into account students of nontraditional enrollments - part-time students, students who enroll mid-year, and who transfer from one institution to another. So graduation rate alone can create a misleading perception. Completion rate in the form of total number of students receiving any types of awards/degrees creates a complete picture. Combining this data with graduation rate is a better way to compare schools.

Overall Rating:
It hasn't been a year since I was searching for new careers/schools, and making the choice to enroll here will never be anything I regret. Ernie and the admissions team, President Yakshe, the educational staff, and even security and upkeep are dedicated to keep you motivated and with a job by the end of your time. Thank you so much.
Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™This school is a God send! They are a wonderful staff that is really there. The classes are challenging and extremely educational. As someone a little above the average college age, they make it a very easy transition.
Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™I have been attending Pittsburgh Career Institute for about 9 months now and it has been a very rewarding experience. I am enrolled in the vet tech program. From the very first day, at orientation, I felt fully welcomed and liked by the entire staff. We have an amazing group of instructors that truly care about seeing you succeed, but, you have to put the effort in. It is an extremely fast paced and overwhelming program...but if it is a career you are truly invested in, you make it work. I am always greeted by name and with a smile, no matter who the staff member might be. I’m very grateful to be getting my education here.
Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™I absolutely love this place. From the moment I step foot into this school I was greeted but so many smiling faces. Instructors are very helpful and the learning experience is one of a kind. Highly recommended!
Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™This school is awesome. They prioritize the students and are willing to do anything to help you, if you aren’t ready for a fast paced learning experience, it’s not for you. The programs are fast and you have to learn a lot at a time in a short time frame, prepares you for your future career. Admissions staff is great and so are the teachers!
