What families pay varies with income: students from families earning under $30,000 paid about $9,779 on average, and those from families earning $110,000 or more about $19,659. 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 Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College?

Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College reports a graduation rate of approximately 26% (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 Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College have?

Students who borrowed at Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College left with a median of approximately $14,181 in federal loans, and about 11% 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 Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College earn?

Median earnings approximately ten years after entry are $45,665 for students who received federal financial aid at Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College. 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.

No. In the Department of Education's March 2026 data, which the FAFSA uses now, Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College's graduates' median earnings four years after completing were $56,862, above the $37,199 median for high school graduates aged 25 to 34 in Minnesota, so first-year students who list it do not see the lower-earnings notice.
