Outcomes Overview
Graduates face modest debt loads with a median of $13,000, creating monthly payments of $138 that consume about 4.3% of typical starting salaries. The employment rate reaches 90.5%, reflecting strong demand for medical support professionals in Hawaii's healthcare system. However, median earnings of $33,322 in the first year lag behind many healthcare programs nationally. The debt-to-income ratio of 0.39 sits below the concerning 1.0 threshold, but earnings growth appears limited with five-year salaries reaching only $39,717. Nearly half of borrowers struggle with loan repayment at 49.85%. Most graduates enter roles as medical assistants, pharmacy technicians, or healthcare support staff in Honolulu's hospitals and clinics. This represents an average return on investment given the stable employment but constrained earning potential.
