Outcomes Overview
Graduates earn a median of $86,693 ten years after completion, creating a debt-to-earnings ratio of 30% based on the typical $25,729 in loans. Monthly loan payments of $273 consume roughly 3.8% of post-graduation income. The 95.7% employment rate reflects strong demand for nurses in the New York metro area. Most graduates enter hospital systems, long-term care facilities, and outpatient clinics across Staten Island and Manhattan. The 28.3% six-year graduation rate suggests many students struggle to complete the program. However, those who finish benefit from nursing's job security and steady income growth. Despite the modest graduation rate, this represents a strong return on investment for successful completers.
