Outcomes Overview
Richard Bland graduates earn a median of $41,452 ten years after leaving, which puts their debt-to-earnings ratio at a manageable 27% with typical debt of $11,000. The monthly loan payment of $117 represents about 3.4% of their income, well below the recommended 10% threshold. Since this is a two-year college, many graduates transfer to four-year schools or enter fields like healthcare support, business services, and public safety that value associate degrees. The 82.6% employment rate shows most find work quickly. However, the 20.90% six-year graduation rate means many students struggle to complete their programs. For those who do graduate, this represents a strong return on investment with low debt and decent earning potential.
