Outcomes Overview
The 28.6% six-year graduation rate at this small Baptist college signals significant completion challenges that directly impact career outcomes. Graduates who do finish typically enter ministry, Christian education, or faith-based nonprofit work where starting salaries often range from $25,000-$35,000 annually. With average debt loads from the $13,539 net price, monthly loan payments would consume roughly 6-8% of a graduate's income, which falls within manageable range. However, the low completion rate means most students never reach graduation to benefit from any degree premium. The specialized religious focus limits career flexibility compared to broader liberal arts programs. While debt levels remain reasonable, the combination of low graduation rates and narrow career paths creates a weak return on investment for most students.
