1969 is the year when Vatterott College began providing quality career training to students seeking career skills for a better life. And in 2003, Vatterott Education Centers Inc. was established as the parent company of Vatterott College, Vatterott Education Center of Dallas, Vatterott Career Colleges in Memphis Tennessee, L’cole Culinaire and The Court Reporting Institutes.

All students at Vatterott College are eligible to be considered for financial aid, to be determined by the Financial Aid Office. Upon completion of all necessary forms, the Financial Aid Office will determine the types and amounts of Financial Aid for which you may qualify and assist you in processing the application. Nevertheless, all students, regardless of payment options or funding sources, are ultimately responsible for payment of their tuition, fees, books, uniforms, tools and taxes and any other costs associated with their education.

The College strives to help students to find a challenging and rewarding job and helps them to develop and use effective job search strategies specific to their field. The Vatterott College Career Placement office works to meet these goals.
