About this school
Eastern Atlantic States Carpenters Technical Centers is a career-training campus in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, offering programs in the construction trades. The school is accredited by the Council on Occupational Education, which means it has met that agency's standards for occupational education programs. Federal data indicates this campus does not participate in Title IV federal financial aid, so students cannot use FAFSA-based aid such as Pell Grants to pay for training here; anyone considering enrollment should confirm this directly with the school, as funding arrangements can be tied to union or apprenticeship sponsorship instead of individual financial aid.
Specific outcome and cost figures for this campus are not reported for this campus in federal data. That includes completion rate compared with the state average, median debt carried by graduates, median earnings ten years after entry, total annual cost of attendance, and the share of students receiving Pell Grants. Because the school does not participate in Title IV programs, it may not be required to report the same outcome metrics tracked in the College Scorecard for other schools.
This type of program tends to suit people pursuing a specific trade credential, such as carpentry, often through an apprenticeship-linked structure rather than a traditional degree path; whether it fits an adult career changer depends on program length and schedule details not included here, so contact the school directly. To verify accreditation status and check whether any federal data exists for this campus, consult the Council on Occupational Education directly and search the U.S. Department of Education's College Scorecard by the school's exact name.
