Outcomes Overview
Heritage Bible College graduates earn a median of $30,672 ten years after graduation, which creates financial challenges given the debt load. With 96% of students taking federal loans and an average net price of $14,219, graduates typically face monthly payments around $160. This represents roughly 6% of their gross monthly income, which is manageable but leaves little room for error. Most graduates enter ministry, nonprofit work, or Christian education roles that prioritize service over salary. The 40% six-year graduation rate suggests many students struggle to complete their programs. While the college serves an important mission in training Christian leaders, the financial return represents a weak investment for most students.
