Outcomes Overview
EICC graduates enter the workforce with a manageable debt load of $12,739, creating a debt-to-earnings ratio of just 0.32 against median earnings of $39,060. Monthly loan payments of $135 consume only 4.2% of typical graduate income, well below the recommended 10% threshold. The district's strong ties to the Quad Cities manufacturing corridor help explain the impressive 94.4% employment rate. Many graduates find work in healthcare support, advanced manufacturing, and skilled trades that anchor the regional economy. The 39.1% loan repayment rate suggests some graduates struggle initially, but the low debt burden and solid earning potential create a strong return on investment for career-focused students.
