Outcomes Overview
Graduates earn $49,087 in their first year and see steady growth to $60,409 after 10 years. The $19,976 median debt creates monthly payments of $212, which equals about 5% of typical starting salaries. This debt-to-income ratio beats most four-year programs. With 96.4% employment rates, most students land jobs in agriculture, veterinary services, or equipment maintenance right after graduation. The hands-on training and industry connections help explain why 62.82% of borrowers stay current on loans. For students wanting to enter farming, animal care, or agricultural technology without spending four years in college, this represents a strong return on investment.
