Outcomes Overview
Jacksonville College graduates earn a median of $38,885 ten years after enrollment, which translates to roughly $3,240 monthly before taxes. With total costs of $18,070 and an average net price of $11,674, most students graduate with manageable debt loads. The 84.6% employment rate reflects the college's focus on preparing students for ministry and service careers, fields that traditionally offer stable but modest compensation. Monthly loan payments would consume about 10-15% of typical graduate income, well below the 20% threshold financial advisors recommend. While earnings lag behind four-year college graduates, the combination of low debt, strong employment prospects, and career preparation in growing service sectors makes this a solid return on investment for students seeking practical, faith-based education.
