Outcomes Overview
ATA College graduates enter the workforce with manageable debt loads. The median debt of $5,500 creates a debt-to-earnings ratio of just 16%, well below the concerning 20% threshold. Monthly loan payments of $58 represent only 2% of typical graduate income, making repayment highly affordable. The 87% employment rate shows strong job placement in healthcare and technical fields where ATA focuses its training. However, the 37% loan repayment rate suggests some graduates struggle despite low debt levels. Median earnings of $35,017 after ten years reflect the technical nature of the programs but limit long-term earning potential. ATA offers a strong return on investment for students seeking quick entry into stable, entry-level healthcare careers.
