Outcomes Overview
West Virginia Junior College-Morgantown graduates typically enter healthcare, business, and technology fields with a 92.4% employment rate. The median debt of $9,881 creates a debt-to-earnings ratio of 31% when compared to the $31,912 median salary after ten years. Monthly loan payments of $105 consume about 4% of graduates' income, well below the recommended 10% threshold. The college's career-focused training programs connect students directly to local employers in Morgantown's growing healthcare sector. With relatively low debt burdens and strong job placement rates, graduates avoid the heavy loan payments that plague many four-year degree holders. This represents a strong return on investment for students seeking immediate workforce entry.
