About this school
Phoenix Institute is a private for-profit trade school located in Gainesville, Georgia, in a small-city setting. Federal data does not list an accreditor for this campus in the Database of Accredited Postsecondary Institutions and Programs (DAPIP), and the school does not participate in Title IV federal financial aid, meaning students cannot use FAFSA, federal loans, or Pell Grants to pay for programs here. The campus reports two program offerings within the EMT and paramedic training family, with EMT & paramedic training listed as its top program area and 31 completers reported.
Specific outcome and cost figures for this campus are limited in the federal data available. The completion rate for this campus compared with the state average is not reported for this campus in federal data, though the Georgia state average completion rate is listed as 49.7%. Median debt of graduates, median earnings 10 years after entry, annual cost of attendance, and the share of students receiving Pell Grants are all not reported for this campus in federal data.
Given the concentration on EMT and paramedic training, this campus may suit students seeking focused, single-field training rather than a broad associate-degree pathway, though program length and schedule are not reported for this campus in federal data, so career-changer fit should be confirmed directly with the school. Because the school does not participate in Title IV aid and has no accreditor found in DAPIP, prospective students should verify accreditation status and any available outcome data directly with Phoenix Institute or through the U.S. Department of Education's College Scorecard before enrolling.
