Outcomes Overview
Felician graduates typically earn $57,602 ten years after graduation, carrying median debt of $25,000. Monthly loan payments of $265 consume about 5.5% of typical graduate income, below the recommended 10% threshold. The university's strong healthcare and education programs funnel many graduates into nursing, teaching, and social services careers that offer job security despite modest starting salaries. With 94.2% of graduates finding employment and a relatively manageable debt load, the financial picture improves over time. However, the 49.7% six-year graduation rate means nearly half of students never reach the finish line. For students who complete their degrees, Felician offers an average return on investment.
