Outcomes Overview
Graduates earn a median of $22,844 ten years after leaving, creating a challenging debt-to-earnings ratio of 61%. Monthly loan payments of $148 consume about 8% of typical graduate income, nearly double the recommended 5% threshold. The 41% loan repayment rate signals financial strain for many alumni. EDP University focuses heavily on business and technology programs, preparing students for Puerto Rico's service and administrative sectors. However, the island's limited job market and lower wage scales compared to the mainland US create persistent challenges. With 77% of graduates finding employment but earning below-average salaries relative to their debt burden, this represents a weak return on investment despite strong job placement rates.
