Outcomes Overview
Graduates earn a median of $44,435 ten years after starting, while carrying just $8,500 in debt. Monthly loan payments of $90 consume only 2.4% of typical graduate income, well below the recommended 10% threshold. The 89.4% employment rate reflects strong job placement in Southern Maryland's government sector and healthcare industries. Many graduates transfer to four-year universities or enter careers at nearby Patuxent River Naval Air Station. The debt-to-income ratio of 19% compares favorably to the national community college average of 35%. With low borrowing costs and solid earning potential in the region's stable job market, this represents a strong return on investment for career-focused students.
