Outcomes Overview
Little Big Horn College graduates enter the workforce with minimal debt burden since the federal loan rate sits at 0%. The median earnings of $21,152 after ten years reflect the rural Montana economy and the college's focus on serving local Crow Nation communities. Women make up 70% of the student body, often pursuing careers in education, social services, and tribal administration. The 96% employment rate demonstrates strong job placement within the reservation and surrounding areas. Graduates typically work in culturally relevant fields that serve Native American communities rather than pursuing high-salary careers in urban markets. For students committed to serving their tribal community, this represents a strong return on investment despite lower absolute earnings.
