Outcomes Overview
Florida Gateway graduates enter the workforce with a median debt of $6,992, creating a manageable debt-to-earnings ratio of just 18% when measured against their $37,894 median income after ten years. Monthly loan payments of $74 represent only 2.1% of typical graduate income, well below the recommended 10% threshold. The 90.5% employment rate reflects strong job placement in north-central Florida's healthcare, business, and technical sectors. Many graduates transfer to four-year universities or enter local industries that value practical training over strong credentials. At under $7,000 in total debt, Florida Gateway delivers strong value for career-focused students. This represents a strong return on investment for affordable workforce preparation.
