Analysis

Remington College-North Houston's Allied Health program starts graduates at significantly lower salaries than competing Texas schools, with first-year earnings of $27,695 falling well below the state median of $44,175. This places the program in just the 10th percentile among Texas allied health programs—meaning 90% of similar programs in the state produce better initial outcomes. The debt burden of $24,121 compounds the problem, creating a debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.87 that's concerning for an entry-level healthcare field.

The program's saving grace is substantial earnings growth, with salaries jumping 33% to $36,776 by year four. However, even with this improvement, graduates still earn less than the typical first-year graduate from top Texas programs like San Jacinto Community College ($52,032) or Kilgore College ($51,558). The high Pell grant rate (93%) indicates this program serves primarily low-income students, but the weak employment outcomes suggest these students might be better served by community college alternatives that offer similar training at lower cost with better job prospects.

For families considering this program, the math is challenging: your child would likely graduate with above-average debt to enter a field where they'll earn significantly less than peers from other Texas schools. Community colleges offering the same credential appear to deliver substantially better value in this market.
