Top Trade Schools in 2017

Imagine America looks back on 2017 to rank the top trade schools that granted the most Imagine America awards. Every month, we send a list of top trade schools to our database of workforce development boards, high schools, and VA offices to let them know where they can send their students with one of our awards. Congratulations to the top trade schools on this list!

In the year of 2017, there was a total of $8 million in tuition assistance given to trade school students through the Imagine America program. This list ranks the 10 schools with the most awards given in 2017:

1. Sullivan University - Louisville, KY
2. Brightwood College - Baltimore, MD
3. Ohio Technical College - Cleveland, OH
4. Sullivan University - Lexington, KY
5. Spartan College of Aeronautics and Technology - Tulsa, OK
6. Lincoln Technical Institute - Philadelphia, PA

Thank you to all the participating Imagine America schools on this list for providing our tuition assistance to students! While 2017 was a great year, we expect even more awards to be given out in 2018.
