Outcomes Overview
Antioch-Santa Barbara graduates earn a median of $51,541 ten years after graduation. Their typical debt load of $23,501 creates a debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.46, well below the concerning 1.0 threshold. Monthly loan payments of $249 consume about 5.8% of gross income, a manageable burden. The 93.1% employment rate reflects strong job placement in psychology, education, and social justice fields where Antioch alumni typically work. However, the 46.21% loan repayment rate suggests some graduates struggle financially despite finding jobs. The university's focus on experiential learning and social justice opens doors in nonprofit and human services sectors, though these fields often offer modest starting salaries. Overall, this represents an average return on investment.
