Allied Health and Medical Assisting Services at Remington College-Houston Southeast Campus

This Allied Health program at Remington College delivers concerning results that suggest your investment dollars could work harder elsewhere. While the debt load is quite reasonable at $14,120—well below national averages—the earnings outcomes are troubling. Graduates earn $24,037 in their first year, which ranks in just the 22nd percentile nationally and 40th percentile in Texas, meaning 78% of similar programs nationwide produce better-paying graduates.

The comparison within Texas is particularly stark. Houston Community College and Lone Star College System graduates in the same field earn $35,000+ annually—nearly $10,000 more than Remington graduates. Even accounting for potential differences in program length or requirements, that's a significant gap that compounds over time. The modest 10% earnings growth to $26,469 after four years suggests limited career advancement potential.

The debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.59 isn't dangerous, but when combined with below-average earning power, it represents poor value. With 92% of students receiving Pell grants, this program appears to primarily serve low-income students who especially need strong employment outcomes. Given the robust sample size of 100+ graduates, these results are reliable. Your child would likely achieve better financial outcomes at a community college offering the same credential—save money on tuition and earn significantly more upon graduation.
