Outcomes Overview
Urshan College graduates face significant financial challenges with their ministry-focused degrees. The average debt load translates to monthly payments consuming roughly 15-20% of typical entry-level ministry salaries, which often range from $25,000-$35,000 annually. Most graduates enter pastoral roles, youth ministry, or Christian education where compensation remains modest. The 55% six-year graduation rate suggests many students struggle to complete their programs efficiently. Low-income students pay an average net price of $11,658, creating substantial debt for careers in nonprofit religious work. Ministry positions offer spiritual fulfillment but limited earning potential. The return on investment is weak from a purely financial perspective.
