Location: Campbellsville, Kentucky
Campbellsville seems bad all the way around. Sure, they accept 70% of applicants, so then why do only 39% of students complete their programs?
Maybe it’s because the ones who go for all four years have to shell out over $183,000.
Lewis-Clark State College
Location: Lewiston, Idaho
Lewis-Clark State College in Lewiston, Idaho, isn’t going to ruin your life or anything, but it might leave you – and your wallet – a bit dissatisfied. They’ve got some positive things in their corner, like their 97% acceptance rate and their low tuition, which averages around $11,000 per year.
But they also have some room for improvement, like their graduation rate, which is just over 30%. On average, students will also find themselves facing nearly $20,000 in loan debt.
Savannah Law School
Location: Savannah, Georgia
The Savannah Law School, owned by the John Marshall Law School in Georgia, shut its doors in 2018 after multiple lawsuits were filed against them. This included a class-action suit that claimed the school misrepresented themselves and their financial status and continued to accept students and take their money.
They did this even when they knew they would be shutting down before they could complete their degree programs.
Grambling State University
Location: Grambling, Louisiana
Ah, Grambling State, “the place where everybody is somebody,” – and also where you walk away carrying an average of over $28,000 in debt. Of course, their median starting salary for alums could be worse than it is, which is currently $43,600.
Grambling State is ranked between number 96-122 among regional universities in the South alone. So, you can imagine where that puts it on a national list.
Claflin University
Location: Orangeburg, South Carolina
Claflin doesn’t have the best track record when it comes to its graduation rate, which is just over 52%.
Aside from that, only 86% of graduates report being employed six years after entry.
