Outcomes Overview
San Joaquin Valley College-Temecula graduates earn a median of $38,317 ten years after graduation. Monthly loan payments of $113 consume about 3.5% of typical graduate income, which is manageable compared to national averages. The college maintains a 92.5% employment rate, reflecting strong job placement in healthcare and business fields where hands-on training translates directly to employer needs. With median debt of just $10,674, graduates face a debt-to-earnings ratio of roughly 28%, well below concerning thresholds. However, only 30.16% of borrowers successfully repay loans on schedule. The combination of low debt loads, high employment rates, and reasonable monthly payments relative to earnings creates an average return on investment for career-focused students.
