Outcomes Overview
Miller-Motte College-Chattanooga graduates earn a median of $31,102 ten years after graduation, creating a debt-to-earnings ratio of 51% based on the typical $15,917 in student loans. Monthly loan payments of $169 consume about 6.5% of graduates' income, which is manageable for most budgets. The school focuses on career training programs like healthcare, business, and criminal justice that lead directly to jobs. With a 90.8% employment rate, most graduates find work quickly after finishing their programs. However, the earnings levels place graduates in lower-middle income brackets compared to traditional four-year degree holders. For students seeking immediate job placement in practical fields, this represents an average return on investment.
