Outcomes Overview
Graduates earn a median of $41,472 ten years after leaving, creating a debt-to-earnings ratio of just 23% with typical debt loads of $9,500. Monthly loan payments of $101 consume only 2.9% of median income, well below the recommended 10% threshold. The 93.5% employment rate reflects strong job placement in healthcare and business sectors where North-West College focuses its programs. However, the 41.49% loan repayment rate suggests many graduates struggle to pay down their debt despite finding work. Nearly half of students receive Pell Grants, indicating the school serves lower-income populations entering stable but modest-paying careers. This represents an average return on investment with manageable debt but limited earning potential.
