Outcomes Overview
UC Blue Ash graduates enter the workforce with median debt of $21,250 and monthly loan payments of $225. That payment represents just 4.9% of typical monthly income based on first-year median earnings of $53,819. The debt-to-earnings ratio of 0.39 sits well below the concerning 1.0 threshold that signals financial stress. With a 96.6% employment rate, graduates find work quickly in healthcare, business, and technical fields that value associate degrees and certificates. Many transfer to complete bachelor's degrees at UC's main campus or other four-year institutions. The combination of low debt, strong employment prospects, and affordable monthly payments creates a strong return on investment for career-focused education.
