Outcomes Overview
Valley Forge graduates earn a median of $50,798 ten years after finishing their programs. Their typical debt load of $9,500 represents just 19% of annual earnings, well below the federal recommendation of 20%. Monthly loan payments of $101 consume only 2.4% of median income, making repayment manageable. The 88.9% employment rate reflects strong demand for graduates who often enter military service, law enforcement, or corporate leadership roles. Many transfer to four-year institutions or pursue direct military commissions. The debt-to-income ratio ranks among the best for two-year programs, though absolute earnings lag behind some technical colleges. This represents a strong return on investment for students seeking military careers or structured leadership development.
