Outcomes Overview
Bellin graduates enter the workforce with a median debt of $18,000 and earn $66,343 in their first year after graduation. This creates a manageable debt-to-earnings ratio of 27%, well below the recommended 40% threshold. Monthly loan payments of $191 represent just 3.5% of typical first-year income. Nearly all graduates (99.6%) find employment immediately after completing their nursing and radiologic sciences programs. The college's specialized focus on healthcare means graduates enter high-demand fields with strong job security. Earnings grow steadily, reaching $76,222 by the tenth year post-graduation. Healthcare employers actively recruit Bellin graduates throughout Wisconsin and the upper Midwest. This represents a strong return on investment for students pursuing healthcare careers.
