Outcomes Overview
Only 29% of students graduate within six years, creating challenges for those seeking strong career outcomes. The low completion rate means many students accumulate debt without earning their degree. Graduates who do finish typically enter ministry, social work, or education fields where starting salaries often range from $30,000-40,000 annually. With total program costs around $85,000 for four years, debt loads can easily reach $50,000-60,000 for those requiring loans. Monthly payments of $500-700 would consume 15-20% of a typical graduate's gross income, well above the recommended 10% threshold. The college's focus on biblical studies and ministry preparation serves students called to service careers, but the financial return remains weak compared to secular institutions.
