Outcomes Overview
Strayer graduates earn a median of $40,092 ten years after enrollment, creating a debt-to-earnings ratio of 101%. Monthly loan payments of $431 consume nearly 13% of typical graduate income. The 24% loan repayment rate signals significant financial strain for many alumni. Working adults gravitate toward Strayer for business, IT, and healthcare programs that promise career advancement. The 93% employment rate looks impressive until you consider the modest earnings. Many graduates work in administrative roles, customer service, and entry-level business positions that don't require specialized degrees. With debt exceeding annual income and substantial monthly payments, Strayer represents a weak return on investment for most students.
