Outcomes Overview
Graduates typically earn $46,894 within ten years, creating a debt-to-earnings ratio of just 26% with median debt of $12,000. Monthly loan payments of $127 represent only 3.2% of typical graduate income. The college's technical focus feeds Wisconsin's manufacturing and healthcare sectors, where skilled trades command strong wages. Employment rates hit 97.3%, reflecting employer demand for the hands-on training students receive. Most graduates stay in-state, benefiting from Wisconsin's robust industrial economy. The low debt load combined with solid earning potential in growing fields creates a strong return on investment, especially compared to four-year alternatives that often saddle students with much higher debt.
