Outcomes Overview
Graduates earn a median of $31,102 within ten years, creating a debt-to-earnings ratio of 51%. Monthly loan payments of $169 consume about 6.5% of typical graduate income. The college focuses on healthcare and business programs that lead to steady employment in Columbus's medical facilities and service sectors. Nearly 91% of graduates find jobs after completing their programs. However, the 34% loan repayment rate signals financial strain for many former students. The $15,917 median debt load is manageable compared to four-year institutions, but earnings remain below Georgia's median income. Given the modest salary outcomes and repayment challenges, this represents a weak return on investment.
