About this school

Enterprise State Community College is a public community college in Enterprise, Alabama, accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing. Because it participates in Title IV, students here can use federal financial aid such as FAFSA and Pell Grants. The campus awards 10 program families, most notably aviation maintenance (A&P) programs, medical assistant programs, and LPN/LVN programs, with aviation maintenance far outpacing other fields at 226 completers.

Federal data shows a completion rate of 41.8%, which is near the Alabama state average of 45.5%. Graduates who took on debt carried a median of $7,499, and median earnings 10 years after entry were $42,572. Annual cost of attendance is not reported for this campus in federal data. About 35.0% of students receive Pell Grants, reflecting a substantial share of lower-income enrollment among the school's 1,585 undergraduates.

This campus suits students seeking hands-on aviation maintenance training or shorter allied-health credentials such as medical assisting or LPN preparation, though specific program lengths are not reported here. The distant-town locale and mix of short certificate and associate-level programs may appeal to adult career-changers, though this fit is not confirmed by federal data.
