Outcomes Overview
Graduates earn a median of $48,309 ten years after leaving, placing them in the middle range for small private colleges. The typical monthly loan payment of $262 consumes about 6.5% of their gross income, which is manageable compared to the national average of 10-12%. With median debt of $24,750, the debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.51 is reasonable for a liberal arts education. Many alumni pursue careers in criminal justice, forensic science, and social services, fields that prioritize job security over high salaries. The 94.8% employment rate shows strong job placement success. However, the relatively modest earnings and specialized career paths suggest an average return on investment for most students.
