Outcomes Overview
Saint Peter's graduates earn a median of $57,815 ten years after graduation, creating a manageable debt-to-earnings ratio of 35% with typical debt loads around $20,500. Monthly loan payments of $217 represent about 4.5% of gross income, well below the recommended 10% threshold. The 92.2% employment rate reflects strong job placement in the New York metropolitan area. Business program graduates often land roles in finance and corporate management across Manhattan and North Jersey. The relatively low debt burden compared to the $41,054 sticker price shows financial aid working effectively. Despite the modest median earnings compared to top institutions, the combination of reasonable debt and solid employment prospects delivers an average return on investment.
