Outcomes Overview
Graduates face significant financial challenges with median earnings of just $21,256 ten years after graduation. Only 46.88% successfully repay their federal loans. The debt-to-earnings ratio creates strain for many alumni entering ministry work, which traditionally offers modest compensation. Monthly loan payments can consume 15-20% of typical graduate income, well above the recommended 10% threshold. Many graduates pursue pastoral roles, missionary work, or Christian education positions that prioritize service over salary. The 35.70% six-year graduation rate suggests some students struggle to complete their programs. While the college serves students called to ministry, the financial mathematics present serious obstacles. The return on investment is weak given the earnings-to-debt relationship.
