Outcomes Overview
Sullivan County graduates earn a median of $38,354 ten years after college, creating a debt-to-earnings ratio of 26 percent with typical debt of $10,150. Monthly loan payments of $108 consume about 3.4 percent of post-graduation income. The college's focus on hospitality management aligns with the Catskills resort industry, where many graduates find work in hotels, restaurants, and tourism businesses. The 90.9 percent employment rate reflects strong local job placement. However, the 22.2 percent six-year graduation rate and 33.7 percent loan repayment rate indicate completion challenges. For students who finish their programs and enter hospitality careers, this represents an average return on investment with manageable debt loads.
