Outcomes Overview
Grossmont graduates earn a median of $40,309 ten years after enrollment, while carrying typical debt of $8,625. This creates a manageable debt-to-earnings ratio of 21%, well below the concerning 30% threshold. Monthly loan payments of $91 represent just 2.7% of typical graduate income. The 86.4% employment rate shows strong job market performance for community college graduates. Many Grossmont alumni enter healthcare support, skilled trades, and business fields that value practical training over four-year degrees. With in-state costs under $1,400 annually and low debt burdens, graduates avoid the financial stress plaguing many college students. This represents a strong return on investment for career-focused education.
