Outcomes Overview
Graduates earn a median of $32,130 five years out, creating a debt-to-income ratio of 42%. Monthly loan payments of $144 consume about 5.4% of typical graduate income, well below the recommended 10% threshold. The 86.5% employment rate reflects strong demand for medical assistants and healthcare technicians in California's growing healthcare sector. Most graduates enter entry-level positions at hospitals, clinics, and medical offices where starting salaries often increase rapidly with experience. The relatively low debt load of $13,555 makes this manageable even on healthcare support wages. For students seeking quick entry into stable healthcare careers, this represents a strong return on investment despite modest initial earnings.
