Outcomes Overview
Mayland graduates enter a job market where 91.4% find employment, earning a median of $34,663 within ten years of graduation. The debt burden remains minimal since no students take federal loans, making the return on investment particularly strong for a rural community college. Graduates typically enter healthcare support, trades, and local business roles that serve the Appalachian region's economy. With nearly all students paying under $6,000 annually and avoiding significant debt, monthly payments represent a negligible percentage of post-graduation income. The 48.6% six-year completion rate reflects the challenges many working adults face in rural areas, but those who finish see solid employment outcomes. This represents a strong return on investment for career-focused education.
