Outcomes Overview
Herzing University-New Orleans graduates enter the workforce with a median debt of $21,500 and earn $36,909 ten years after graduation. Monthly loan payments of $228 consume about 7.4% of typical graduate income, which falls within manageable ranges. The 94.2% employment rate reflects strong job placement in healthcare and business sectors where the school focuses its programs. However, the debt-to-earnings ratio of 58% signals financial strain compared to national benchmarks. Only 30.4% of borrowers successfully repay their loans on schedule. While graduates find work quickly in growing fields like nursing and medical assisting, the combination of modest earnings and repayment struggles indicates a weak return on investment.
