Morris Brown College Outcomes

Morris Brown graduates face significant financial challenges despite their 100% six-year graduation rate. With an average net price of $18,898 and 70% of students taking federal loans, most graduates carry substantial debt into careers that historically don't offer high starting salaries. The college's focus on liberal arts and social sciences typically leads to public service, education, and nonprofit work. Monthly loan payments often consume 15-20% of entry-level salaries in these fields, well above the recommended 10% threshold. While the school's small size creates tight alumni networks in Atlanta, the debt burden outweighs immediate earning potential for most graduates. This represents a weak return on investment despite the strong community connections.
