About this school
Shepherds College is a private non-profit trade and career-training campus located in Union Grove, Wisconsin, a fringe-town locale. The school participates in Title IV federal financial aid, meaning students may be eligible to use FAFSA-based aid, including Pell Grants, to help pay for enrollment. Its primary program family is culinary and pastry schools, with top programs recorded as Culinary & pastry schools, which accounted for 7 completers in the most recent federal data. Accreditation status for this campus was not found in the U.S. Department of Education's DAPIP database, so applicants should confirm current accrediting body status directly with the school.
Federal outcome data available for this campus is limited. The state average completion rate for comparable programs in Wisconsin is 62.8%, but this campus's own completion rate compared to that average is not reported for this campus in federal data. Median debt of graduates, median earnings 10 years after entry, annual cost of attendance, and the share of students receiving Pell Grants are also not reported for this campus in federal data.
Given the single program family and small completer count, this campus may suit students specifically interested in culinary and pastry training rather than those seeking multiple trade options. Whether the program suits adult career-changers cannot be determined from the data provided, since program length and schedule details are not reported here. Prospective students should verify accreditation status and review any updated outcome figures directly through the U.S. Department of Education's College Scorecard, and contact the school directly using its published phone number or website for current tuition, schedule, and enrollment details.
