Outcomes Overview
Graduates earn a median salary of $46,116 ten years after graduation, creating a debt-to-earnings ratio of 57%. Monthly loan payments of $280 consume about 7.3% of typical graduate income, which sits below the recommended 10% threshold. The 94.8% employment rate suggests strong job placement success. Many graduates enter ministry, education, and social services fields where Mid-America's Church of God connections provide networking advantages. The university's focus on Christian leadership development opens doors in faith-based organizations and nonprofits. However, the relatively modest earnings compared to the $26,394 median debt load reflects the nature of service-oriented careers that many graduates pursue. This represents an average return on investment for students committed to ministry and helping professions.
