Outcomes Overview
Miami graduates enter the workforce with $23,000 in median debt against $55,076 in median earnings after 10 years. The debt-to-earnings ratio of 41% falls below the concerning 50% threshold that financial experts warn against. Monthly loan payments of $244 consume roughly 5% of typical graduate income. Miami's strong alumni network in business and politics opens doors across corporate America and government. The university's Public Ivy reputation carries weight with employers, particularly in finance, consulting, and management roles where many graduates land. With 81% completing degrees in four years and a 96.6% employment rate, students see clear career momentum. This represents a strong return on investment for a public university education.
