Outcomes Overview
Spring Hill graduates earn a median of $51,500 ten years after graduation, placing them above many liberal arts college peers. With median debt of $27,000, the debt-to-earnings ratio sits at a reasonable 52%. Monthly loan payments of $286 consume about 6.6% of typical graduate income, well below the recommended 10% threshold. The college's Catholic liberal arts foundation steers many graduates toward education, social services, and healthcare careers. Alumni often pursue graduate school in fields like teaching, counseling, and ministry, where the service-oriented culture translates well. While the 56% graduation rate suggests retention challenges, those who complete degrees see solid financial outcomes. Spring Hill delivers an average return on investment for students seeking values-based education.
