FAFSA earnings check

: Not flagged

CUNY New York City College of Technology does not trigger the FAFSA's "lower earnings" notice. Its graduates' median earnings four years after completing were $67,646, above the $33,962 median for high school graduates aged 25 to 34 in New York.

This is one figure for the whole institution, not for any program: earnings differ by credential and field. It covers graduates who completed in 2017-18 and 2018-19, received federal aid, and were working and not enrolled when earnings were measured in 2022 and 2023, in January 2026 dollars. The Department says the notice is informational only: it does not change aid eligibility. Source: U.S. Department of Education, FSA Data Center, March 2026 release.

Academics

Studying online: a substantial share study entirely online

In Fall 2023, 1,106 of CUNY New York City College of Technology's 13,767 students (8%) were enrolled entirely at a distance. A further 6,039 (44%) took at least one distance course alongside in-person study.

Distance-education figures count STUDENTS enrolled in Fall 2023, not programs on offer. "Exclusively at a distance" means a student took only distance courses that term. A college with few or no such students may still run online courses or an online degree, so a low figure is not evidence that online study is unavailable, and a high one is not a judgement of quality either way.

What is the acceptance rate at CUNY New York City College of Technology?
The most recently reported acceptance rate at CUNY New York City College of Technology is approximately 80% (IPEDS, applicants for fall 2024). Acceptance rate signals selectivity but does not predict any individual applicant's outcome and is not a measure of school quality.

What is the tuition at CUNY New York City College of Technology?
CUNY New York City College of Technology's published in-state tuition is approximately $7,332 per year (IPEDS, charges for academic year 2024-25).

How many students attend CUNY New York City College of Technology?
CUNY New York City College of Technology reports total enrollment of approximately 14,486 students (undergraduate plus graduate) (IPEDS, fall 2024 enrollment). Total enrollment is a useful sizing signal, see the institutional profile for additional breakdowns when available.
How much does CUNY New York City College of Technology actually cost after financial aid?
The average net price at CUNY New York City College of Technology is approximately $5,127 per year. Net price is the total cost of attendance minus grants and scholarships that never have to be repaid, so it is what students actually paid rather than the published sticker price. What families pay varies with income: students from families earning under $30,000 paid about $3,810 on average, and those from families earning $110,000 or more about $13,043. These are averages for students who received federal aid in a prior cohort, not a quote for any individual family. Run the institution's own Net Price Calculator for a figure specific to you.
What is the graduation rate at CUNY New York City College of Technology?
CUNY New York City College of Technology reports a graduation rate of approximately 21% (IPEDS, Graduation Rates 2024 collection: 4-year cohort 2018, 2-year cohort 2021). This measures the share of a prior entering cohort who completed their degree within the federal tracking window. It reflects who enrolls as much as what the institution does, so it is not on its own a measure of teaching quality, and it is not comparable across institutions serving very different students.
How much student debt do graduates of CUNY New York City College of Technology have?
Students who borrowed at CUNY New York City College of Technology left with a median of approximately $10,533 in federal loans, and about 5% of students took federal loans at all. Both numbers matter: a median describes only the students who borrowed, so it reads very differently at a school where most students borrow than at one where few do. Federal loans only, so private and parent borrowing are not included.
How much do graduates of CUNY New York City College of Technology earn?
Median earnings approximately ten years after entry are $49,365 for students who received federal financial aid at CUNY New York City College of Technology. This reflects the mix of programs the institution offers and the students who enroll, not the effect of attending, and it covers aid recipients rather than all graduates.
How should I verify final details about CUNY New York City College of Technology?
CampusPin compiles institutional data from public datasets like IPEDS and the College Scorecard, plus institutional websites and editorial review. Before applying, paying a deposit, or making a final decision, confirm admissions requirements, current tuition, financial aid, deadlines, and program details directly with CUNY New York City College of Technology.
How much do Information Science graduates from CUNY New York City College of Technology earn?
CUNY New York City College of Technology's bachelor's graduates in Information Science earned a median $74,456 four years after graduating, 13% below the $85,294 national median for the same program (2017-19 graduates, measured 2022-23, College Scorecard). One year after graduating, a later class (2018-20 graduates, measured 2020-21) earned a median $45,790; the two figures describe different graduates, not one class's growth. Graduates who borrowed took out a median $11,750 in federal loans at this college (about $125 a month on a 10-year plan).
How much do Computer and Information Sciences graduates from CUNY New York City College of Technology earn?
CUNY New York City College of Technology's associate's graduates in Computer and Information Sciences earned a median $59,137 four years after graduating, 9% above the $54,246 national median for the same program (2017-19 graduates, measured 2022-23, College Scorecard). One year after graduating, a later class (2018-20 graduates, measured 2020-21) earned a median $21,375; the two figures describe different graduates, not one class's growth.
Which programs at CUNY New York City College of Technology have the highest graduate earnings?
Among the 25 programs at CUNY New York City College of Technology with a federal earnings figure from at least 30 graduates, the highest medians four years after graduating were Nursing (RN), associate's ($115,112); Nursing (RN), bachelor's ($109,738); and Construction Engineering Technology/Technician, bachelor's ($96,378) (2017-19 graduates, measured 2022-23, College Scorecard). That order is one federal measure, not a ranking of program quality: earnings reflect the field and where graduates go to work as well as the program.
Does CUNY New York City College of Technology get a "lower earnings" warning on the FAFSA?
No. In the Department of Education's March 2026 data, which the FAFSA uses now, CUNY New York City College of Technology's graduates' median earnings four years after completing were $67,646, above the $33,962 median for high school graduates aged 25 to 34 in New York, so first-year students who list it do not see the lower-earnings notice. The figure describes the whole institution, not any one program.
