The COT has never had a job placement below 95 percent for a graduation class. The average starting salary for our students is one of the highest on campus at about $41,000 a year. Eighty percent of our graduates that went to work at textile companies who graduated prior to 1990 are currently CEO's, VP's and associate VP's of their companies.
