Outcomes Overview
Crowley's Ridge College graduates face a challenging financial reality after graduation. With median debt of $26,228 and median earnings of $39,533 ten years out, graduates owe about 66 cents for every dollar they earn annually. Monthly loan payments of $278 eat up 8.4% of gross income, which is higher than the recommended 10% but manageable for most budgets. The employment rate of 94.9% shows graduates find work, though many likely enter service-oriented careers typical of small Christian colleges rather than high-paying fields. Given the modest earnings relative to debt load and the 26.10% six-year graduation rate, this represents a weak return on investment for most students.
