Outcomes Overview
Carrington College-Pleasant Hill graduates earn a median of $39,633 ten years after graduation, creating a debt-to-earnings ratio of 29% with median debt of $11,537. Monthly loan payments of $122 eat up about 3.7% of typical graduate income, which is manageable compared to many career colleges. The 93.9% employment rate shows strong job placement in healthcare fields like medical assisting and dental hygiene, where Carrington focuses its training. However, the 38.87% loan repayment rate suggests many graduates struggle to pay down their debt despite finding work. The relatively low debt load helps, but earnings remain modest for the cost. This represents an average return on investment for career-focused training.
