About this school

Pacific Union College is a private non-profit college located in Angwin, California, a fringe rural setting. It is accredited by the WASC Senior College and University Commission and the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing, and federal financial aid (Title IV) applies to students enrolled here. Among its offerings, the campus awards credentials in EMT & paramedic training, which is the school's primary trade program family recorded in federal data.

Federal data shows a state average completion rate of 64.2% for comparable programs, though this campus's own completion rate and how it compares to the state average are not reported for this campus in federal data. Graduates who completed trade-related training here carried a median debt of $27,500, and median earnings ten years after entry were $70,484. Annual cost of attendance is not reported for this campus in federal data. About 34.0% of students at this institution receive Pell Grants, which are federal grants for students with financial need.

This campus recorded a single trade completer in EMT & paramedic training, within an undergraduate enrollment of 805, suggesting the trade track is a small program within a larger institution rather than the school's central focus. Prospective students, including career changers, should confirm current program length, format, and licensing requirements directly with the school, since these details are not captured in this dataset. To verify accreditation status and review the underlying federal outcomes data yourself, consult the U.S. Department of Education's College Scorecard.
