Why Hyphen is Different

Hyphen offers one of the top eLearning platforms for Plumbing. Students attend in-person only two days per week while continuing their studies via our eLearning platform. All lectures and quizzes are delivered online so students maximize hands-on training when they are on campus.

While many schools require students to spend 4 to 5 days per week on campus, Hyphen's eLearning platform allows students to graduate faster with less days in school. This means that students can graduate and become a Plumber's Apprentice within 4 months as compared to other schools whose programs are 12 - 24 months long. Even though students spend less time on campus and graduate faster, their knowledge and competency of their matches those of students who study full time for 12 to 24 months. Hyphen's placement rate is consistently over 95% within 3 months of graduation.

The faster, more efficient program means lower tuition for students. Hyphen's Plumbing program costs $7,450 while most technical schools charge over $18,000 for their Plumbing program.

FAQ

When can I start?

Hyphen usually has a new class starting every two months. Please speak to our admissions staff to find out when the next wheel starts.

Do you offer financial aid?

While we do not offer financial aid, we offer high caliber staff and facilities at a modest price.  At $7,450 for the plumbing program, you will be hard pressed to find a school in Orlando of such quality at such reasonable prices.

We offer payment plans so you only need to pay $2,650 at enrollment and the balance can be paid monthly while you are in school. With a payment plan, you will graduate at the end of 4 months without any student debt.

What is the ultimate cost versus a school that offers financial aid

The typical cost of the plumbing program for a school that offers financial aid is $18,000.  If you qualify, the government will give you a maximum of $6,495 in Pell grants which you do not need to pay back.  This leaves you with $11,505 which you need to borrow from the federal government in the form of student loans).


At Hyphen School, the Plumbing program costs $7,450.  The total cost of our program is cheaper than schools that offer financial aid because the Pell grant covers only a fraction of the total cost.

You can enroll in the program with a $2,650 deposit.  Then it is $1,190 per month and you will graduate without any student debt.
