Outcomes Overview
Graduates earn a median of $38,817 ten years after starting, while carrying typical debt of $12,000. This creates a manageable debt-to-earnings ratio of 31%, well below the recommended 40% threshold. Monthly loan payments of $127 represent just 3.9% of median earnings, leaving graduates with significant financial breathing room. The 91% employment rate reflects strong job placement in the Finger Lakes region's manufacturing and healthcare sectors. Many students transfer to four-year programs rather than enter the workforce immediately, which helps explain the relatively modest early-career earnings. For a two-year degree with minimal debt burden and excellent employment prospects, this represents a strong return on investment.
