The short answer
Remington College-Dallas Campus electromechanical technology graduates earn less than graduates of most electromechanical technology programs nationally, $45,445 in their first year. Debt is high. The typical graduate leaves with $20,000 in federal loans, more than at 95% of electromechanical technology programs in the country. Several Texas programs report higher pay.
How it compares
Each figure is the median for graduates of the program. The Texas and national columns are the medians across all electromechanical technology associate's programs that report the figure.
Five years out, Remington College-Dallas Campus graduates earn less than the national figure and about $22,422 less than the Texas median.
Debt and first-year pay at every Texas electromechanical technology program
Programs in the upper left give graduates higher pay for less debt. Dashed lines mark the Texas medians.
Hover over or tap a dot to see the school. Only programs that report both earnings and debt are shown.
What graduates earn over time
Pay rises about 17% between the first and fifth year.
Year 1 and year 5 figures come from different graduating classes, so the growth rate is an estimate.
Paying back the loans
On a standard 10-year plan, the median debt means a payment of about $212 a month, or 5.6% of a graduate's typical monthly pay in the first year.
The government publishes these as ranges to protect privacy. They were measured in 2018 to 2020, partly during the pandemic pause on federal loan payments, so the forbearance share may be higher than usual.
Where graduates work, and what the pay is worth
93% of graduates (90 of 97) were working in Texas one year after graduating. Prices in the Dallas area are about 3% above the national average, so a $45,445 salary here buys what about $44,083 buys in a typical US city.

About this data
- Earnings and debt only include students who received federal financial aid (grants or loans).
- Earnings only count graduates who were working and not enrolled in more school. Graduates who went straight to further study are not included.
- Debt only includes federal loans. Private loans and credit cards are not counted.
- Some schools with several campuses report one combined figure for all of them. We count each of those schools once, and leave them out of Texas comparisons when their main campus is in another state.
- Scorecard figures describe graduating classes from several years ago. BLS wages are from May 2025.
- School-level numbers like tuition, admission rate, and graduation rate are for the whole school, not the electromechanical technology program.
