Occupation pay is what working diesel mechanics professionals in Maine earn (all experience levels) — school "earnings" figures above are medians for each school's recent federally-aided students across all its programs, which read lower.
| School | City | Type | Net price / yr | Completion | Earnings (10 yr) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Washington County Community College | Calais | public | $5,149 | 51.5% | $34,407 |
| Central Maine Community College | Auburn | public | $6,975 | 34.9% | $42,448 |
| Northern Maine Community College | Presque Isle | public | $7,181 | 50% | $43,348 |
| Eastern Maine Community College | Bangor | public | $8,928 | 33.9% | $41,704 |
| Southern Maine Community College | South Portland | public | $11,086 | 28.3% | $41,661 |
| The Landing School | Arundel | private nonprofit | $35,532 | 91.5% | $65,849 |
Ranking = median earnings 10 years after entry per $1,000 of average yearly net price (methodology). Figures are institution-wide federal medians for each school as a whole — not diesel mechanics graduates specifically. Schools without both figures sort last — "not reported" means the federal dataset lacks the value, not that the school is bad.
