College Scorecard (2026 release), institution-level · payback and returns are our math.
The arithmetic, on Pima Medical Institute-Las Vegas's own numbers. Net price $23,188 × 4 years = $92,752 total. Median earnings $38,673 fall $9,687 short of the $48,360 high-school baseline, so the premium this formula divides by is not positive and no break-even year exists on institution-wide pay. A programme here earning $58,360 would clear the $92,752 bill in about 9.3 years — the gap, not the price, is what blocks payback. Full method.
