Outcomes Overview
Brookline College-Tempe graduates face a challenging financial reality after earning their degrees. The median debt of $9,500 creates a debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.32 against median earnings of $29,576. Monthly loan payments of $101 consume about 4% of graduates' income, which is manageable compared to the national average of 10-15%. However, the low loan repayment rate of 21% suggests many struggle to pay down their balances. The college specializes in healthcare, business, and graphic arts programs that typically lead to entry-level positions in medical offices, small businesses, and design studios. Despite strong employment rates at 94%, the combination of modest earnings and concerning repayment patterns indicates a weak return on investment.
