Outcomes Overview

South Coast College graduates enter the workforce with a median debt of $20,938 against median earnings of $44,897, creating a debt-to-earnings ratio of 47%. Monthly loan payments of $222 consume about 6% of graduates' gross income, which falls within manageable ranges. The college's 91.7% employment rate suggests strong job placement, though the 37.7% loan repayment rate indicates many graduates struggle with payments. Most alumni find work in healthcare support roles, medical assisting, and dental hygiene fields where starting salaries often limit early career earnings. With 89.87% of students taking federal loans and minimal institutional aid available, financing relies heavily on debt. This represents an average return on investment for career-focused healthcare training.
