Outcomes Overview
Fortis College-Richmond graduates earn a median of $32,754 ten years after graduation, creating a debt-to-earnings ratio of 29% based on the typical $9,500 in student loans. Monthly loan payments of $101 consume about 3.7% of gross income for median earners. The 94.2% employment rate shows strong job placement success. However, the 23.82% loan repayment rate indicates many graduates struggle to pay down their debt despite finding work. Most graduates enter healthcare support roles like medical assistants and dental hygienists, fields with steady demand but modest pay scales. Given the relatively low debt burden and high employment rates, this represents an average return on investment for career-focused training.
