Finding Triangle Tech Inc-Pittsburgh charges 11% above the national private for-profit median tuition.
Evidence Published tuition is $18,463. That is 11% above the national private for-profit median ($16,637). Versus the Pennsylvania median ($19,450), sticker tuition is 5% below. Versus the U.S. median ($11,900), sticker is 55% above.
Method Sticker tuition compared with Scorecard-derived medians by ownership, state, locale, and national rollups when available.

Evidence: published tuition at Triangle Tech Inc-Pittsburgh versus school-type, state, locale, and U.S. medians.

What undergraduates typically pay
Finding Average net price at Triangle Tech Inc-Pittsburgh is $23,273.
Evidence College Scorecard average net price is $23,273 (cost of attendance minus average grant aid for aided undergraduates). That is about $5,520 above the Pennsylvania median net price. Versus urban (city) campuses, net price runs $3,220 above the locale median.
Method Average net price from College Scorecard; compared with state, locale, and U.S. medians from EDsmart aggregates.
