14 schools in New Mexico offer aviation maintenance-related programs, compared below on official cost, completion, and earnings data. Federal program data groups aviation maintenance with diesel mechanics and automotive technology — schools below may offer any of these.
Occupation pay is what working aviation maintenance professionals in New Mexico 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.

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 aviation maintenance graduates specifically. Schools without both figures sort last — "not reported" means the federal dataset lacks the value, not that the school is bad.
