Allied Health and Medical Assisting Services at Remington College-Fort Worth Campus

Remington College's allied health program ranks dead last among Texas schools for graduate earnings, placing in just the 10th percentile statewide. While the national median for this field is $36,862, and Texas schools typically produce graduates earning $44,175, Remington students start at only $27,695—nearly $17,000 below the state average. Even after four years, their $36,776 median barely reaches what most graduates earn immediately after graduation elsewhere.

The debt situation compounds these concerns. Though the $24,121 debt load sits near national averages, it becomes problematic when paired with such low starting salaries. Students essentially borrow nearly a full year's worth of their first-year earnings, creating immediate financial pressure that better-performing Texas programs avoid. Meanwhile, top performers like Western Technical College and San Jacinto Community College deliver starting salaries approaching $53,000—nearly double what Remington graduates can expect.

The 33% earnings growth over four years does provide some hope, but it's not enough to overcome the substantial initial disadvantage. With 85% of students receiving Pell grants, most families are already financially stretched and cannot afford a program that consistently underperforms state alternatives. Parents should strongly consider community colleges like Navarro or Kilgore, which offer similar training with dramatically better employment outcomes at comparable costs.
