Outcomes Overview
Florida Tech Online graduates face a challenging debt burden with median debt of $27,000 against median earnings of $43,137 ten years out. This creates a debt-to-earnings ratio of 63%, well above the recommended 40% threshold. Monthly loan payments of $286 consume about 8% of typical graduate income. The employment rate of 92.2% shows strong job placement in engineering and technology fields where Florida Tech has built its reputation. However, the loan repayment rate of just 37% signals financial strain for many alumni. Despite solid career prospects in high-demand STEM fields, the combination of moderate earnings and significant debt burden creates a weak return on investment for most students.
