Outcomes Overview
Provo College graduates face significant financial challenges after earning their degrees. The median debt of $41,733 creates a debt-to-earnings ratio of 1.05, meaning graduates owe slightly more than their first-year salary. Monthly loan payments of $442 consume about 10% of typical graduate income, which is manageable but substantial. The 47% loan repayment rate suggests nearly half of borrowers struggle to keep up with payments. Most graduates enter healthcare support roles, medical assisting, or business administration positions in Utah's growing economy. The 97% employment rate shows strong job placement success. However, the combination of high debt, modest earnings, and poor repayment rates indicates a weak return on investment for most students.
