Outcomes Overview
Graduates earn a median of $30,187 ten years after completing their programs. With typical debt of $10,915, the debt-to-earnings ratio sits at a manageable 36%. Monthly loan payments of $116 consume about 5% of gross income, well below the recommended 10% threshold. The 95.9% employment rate reflects strong demand for healthcare support workers in Houston's massive medical center. Most graduates enter roles as medical assistants, pharmacy technicians, and healthcare administrative staff. The 41% loan repayment rate suggests some financial stress despite high employment. Given the relatively low debt burden and strong job placement in a growing field, this represents an average return on investment for career-focused healthcare training.
