Criminal Justice and Corrections at Remington College-Mobile Campus

Remington College-Mobile's Criminal Justice program produces earnings well below what criminal justice graduates typically make in Alabama. At $26,952 in first-year earnings, graduates here earn about $8,000 less than the state median of $35,238—landing this program in just the 25th percentile statewide. The gap is even starker when compared to top-performing Alabama programs like Columbia Southern University, where similar graduates earn more than double ($58,241). For context, even George C. Wallace State Community College graduates start at $35,238, significantly outpacing Remington's outcomes.

The $22,119 in median debt isn't catastrophic—it's actually lower than you might expect relative to other programs here—but paired with below-market earnings, it creates a challenging financial picture. Graduates owe nearly a full year's salary coming out of school. The 17% earnings growth to $31,462 by year four helps, but doesn't close the gap with state peers who started ahead. With 93% of students receiving Pell grants, this program primarily serves low-income students who need every earnings advantage they can get.

For families considering this program, the comparison is straightforward: other Alabama schools produce significantly better employment outcomes in criminal justice. Unless there are compelling access or scheduling reasons to choose Remington-Mobile specifically, exploring alternatives like community college options would likely provide better return on investment.
