Outcomes Overview
Graduates face mixed financial outcomes after leaving this small Christian university. The median debt of $27,000 creates monthly payments of $286, consuming about 8.3% of typical graduate income of $41,471. This debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.65 sits near the national average for private colleges. The employment rate of 92.6% shows most graduates find work, though the loan repayment rate of just 37.62% suggests many struggle with payments. King's University traditionally prepares students for ministry, education, and social services careers that often pay below median wages. The relatively low tuition of $12,480 helps keep debt manageable compared to similar Christian institutions. Overall, this represents an average return on investment for students prioritizing faith-based education over maximum earning potential.
