How much does SAE Institute of Technology-Nashville actually cost after financial aid?

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.

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 SAE Institute of Technology-Nashville?
SAE Institute of Technology-Nashville reports a graduation rate of approximately 42%. 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 SAE Institute of Technology-Nashville have?
Students who borrowed at SAE Institute of Technology-Nashville left with a median of approximately $9,500 in federal loans, and about 70% 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 SAE Institute of Technology-Nashville earn?
Median earnings approximately ten years after entry are $39,544 for students who received federal financial aid at SAE Institute of Technology-Nashville. 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.
