Outcomes Overview
Graduates earn a median of $36,627 ten years after leaving, while carrying just $8,625 in debt. This creates a debt-to-earnings ratio of 24%, well below the concerning 40% threshold. Monthly loan payments of $91 represent just 3% of typical graduate income. The 90.2% employment rate reflects strong demand for the technical and healthcare skills CVCC emphasizes. Many graduates enter nursing, automotive technology, and business fields where associate degrees provide direct career entry. The 43.21% loan repayment rate suggests some graduates struggle with payments, likely those in lower-paying positions. However, the combination of minimal debt and practical training in growing sectors makes this a strong return on investment for career-focused students.
