Outcomes Overview
Trinity graduates earn a median of $35,604 ten years after graduation, creating a debt-to-earnings ratio of 63%. Monthly loan payments of $239 consume about 8% of typical graduate income. The college's focus on ministry preparation means many alumni enter pastoral roles, youth ministry, and Christian education where salaries tend toward the lower end nationally. The 96.6% employment rate shows strong job placement success. However, the relatively modest earnings reflect the nonprofit and ministry sectors where most graduates serve. Given the specialized religious training and solid employment outcomes but below-average earnings potential, Trinity offers an average return on investment for students committed to ministry careers.
