Outcomes Overview
Andrews graduates enter the workforce with a median debt of $26,000 and earn $53,187 ten years after graduation. This creates a manageable debt-to-earnings ratio of 49 percent, well below the concerning 60 percent threshold. Monthly loan payments of $276 consume just 6 percent of typical graduate income. The university's strong connections to Seventh-day Adventist healthcare systems and educational institutions help place graduates in stable careers. Many pursue medicine, nursing, education, and ministry roles within the denomination's global network. The 92.5 percent employment rate reflects these established pipelines. With reasonable debt levels and solid earning potential, Andrews offers a strong return on investment for students committed to Adventist-affiliated careers.
